Great opportunity to buy this spacious ranch. Needs a little TLC to make perfect, but you can move in and do the little cosmetic updates as you go. The home features 2 bedrooms, large living room and a large dining/family area off the kitchen. The basement has some finish including a 3rd bedroom with egress window. The best part is the entertaining you can do at this home. Huge deck and above ground swimming pool. Surround sound speakers stay as well as large canopy. Newer 2 1/2 car garage. Won't last long at this price!
