So much house for the money, this 3 bedroom, 2 bath home offers over 2,300 square feet of living space and has received a lot of love in the last two years, including a new roof (2023), freshly painted exterior (2023), and a newly remodeled, walk-up attic space with new drywall and carpet (2024). With a total investment of nearly $50,000 in just the past two years, this home is ready for the next owner to finish the remaining cosmetic work like painting and hardwood floor refinishing needed to more fully restore this classic vintage home. The original woodwork and built-ins are beautiful and robust. The floor plan is surprisingly open with a kitchen that was remodeled years ago to a more modern layout and a larger opening between the kitchen and dining room and gives direct sight lines to the dining space and living area. Main floor laundry; off-street parking; expansive, covered front porch; and a rare finished lower level are also on offer. Home is being sold in as-is condition, but buyers are welcome to inspect the property. The sellers are simply limiting their continued investment in the property given how much they have invested in the last two years to make the home more move-in ready. Come see for yourself while you still can!
