This property is a fantastic opportunity for the right buyer or investor! Located on a quiet dead-end street, this home is within walking distance to a nearby neighborhood park, offering both tranquility and convenience. The same family has lovingly maintained this 3 bedroom, 2 bath home since 1975. Although the basement lacks legal egress windows, it includes two spaces previously used as bedrooms, a 3/4 bath, family room and a laundry room to add functionality. According to the seller, the basement has never experienced water seepage, a great sign of structural integrity. The property has solid bones and is ready for updates to suit a new owner's vision. This could be a perfect fit for a buyer looking to invest in a home with great potential: close to schools, parks, shopping yet nestled into a quaint neighborhood.
