Calling all Rehabbers / handy folks ... Solid home in central residential location seeking a new owner with the vision and ability to give the love, care, refurbishments and updates needed. Long-time family home with traditional farmhouse layout. The front entry greets you with the inviting porch for sitting and watching the world waltz by. Enter the first floor with living room, dining room, 2 bedrooms, a bath and the farmhouse-typical very large kitchen. Head upstairs to two bedrooms with plenty of closet storage. Out the kitchen door is a pleasant porch with sitting area overlooking an ample backyard with room to add a sizeable garage. The unfinished basement offers the potential to expand the living space. A rehabber / handyman special as the home is being sold 'as-is' and needs lots of updating. Roof is newer. Plumbing has been upgraded to copper. Electrical has been updated to 100amp circuit breakers. Furnace / AC / hot water all newer. So, the 'bones' are in pretty good condition. A project was started to lower the basement floor to provide a higher ceiling height but remains incomplete. Sold 'as is'. Priced to reflect condition. Seller motivated to consider all serious offers.
