Don't judge a home by it's "cover"; take a look inside. Great investment property with some updates. Situated on a partially fenced large lot. Ranch style home has two bedrooms and one decent sized bathroom with a tub/shower combo. The entry/mud room can be used for an office area, sitting space, or storage; could be made into a third bedroom potentially. Cathedral ceiling in combo kitchen/dining area and has plenty of room for a kitchen table and several bar stools could be added for a breakfast counter. Large 15 x 9 main floor laundry room with utility sink. Deck off back of home. Currently occupied by six year tenant that would like stay. Tenant is month to month. This can also be a great starter home for a reasonable price. Large storage shed. New Lennox 96% efficiency furnace August 2024. New shingles to roof in 2010. Central air. While this home could use some work, it's priced to sell! No exemptions on taxes. SOLD AS IS. Buyer is welcome to do a home inspection, but seller will not be doing repairs as a result of home inspection. No survey, no FHA or VA due to exterior condition.
