Fantastic opportunity to own for less than rent! This charming home sits on a generous, flat lot and features an updated roof, HVAC, and beautiful real hardwood floors. At the back of the home, you’ll find a convenient laundry room with additional storage space, plus a cellar-style basement for extra versatility. Bonus: there’s a detached garage with an upper-level apartment! While the apartment will need renovation, it offers great potential with an open-concept living room and kitchen, a bedroom, and a full bath — perfect for future rental income, guest space, or a home office. Don’t miss out on this value-packed property! Sold as-is — cash or conventional loan only.
