Property Description

Seller will not accept any offers before Saturday 8/2 at 4 pm to give chance to all to snag this deal. Calling all handy people who want to own a mid-century modern home in a desirable neighborhood priced to accommodate repairs and improvements! It features classic architectural touches, including a statement brick fireplace, original fir trim, and hip roof design (with shingles replaced in 2016). You'll appreciate the roomy front and back entries, a nice-sized yard, and great bones throughout. Recent updates since 2016 include new windows on the main level, updated 3-wire electrical outlets, newer flooring and carpet, and a well-done and tastefully remodeled main bathroom. Offered as is, this property is a fantastic sweat equity opportunity, with potential to finish the basement, refresh the yard, and bring the deck back to life. Whether you're a homeowner looking to personalize a space or an investor seeking value in an established location, this one is worth a look as we've priced this to accommodate the improvements and corrections that it needs.
