    What's special

    Built-in bookshelves
    This West End charmer offers a clean slate and is ready for your personal finishing touches. Priced to sell by out-of-state owners, the home is being offered in as-is condition, presenting a great opportunity for customization. The main-floor den off the living room features built-in bookshelves and can easily be reimagined as a formal dining room or work-from-home office. A sliding glass door off the kitchen opens to a spacious deck—perfect for cookouts, gatherings, and relaxed outdoor living. The lower level includes a half bath with potential to expand into a full bath, and the basement itself had been finished previously, offering a head start for future renovation. Upstairs, a bonus room off the bedroom provides an ideal space for a large walk-in closet, dressing room, or private office. This home is perfect for investors looking to add to their portfolio with wood floors throughout. Note: Roof 2017, Water Heater 1998. Contact your Realtor today to schedule a private tour today.
