What a great opportunity to own a ranch home on a corner lot near to amenities and a school. There has been a fire inside the home so it will need extensive remodeling. It has a fully fenced yard with a storage shed and a two car detached garage. There is a large rear patio. Property is being sold As-Is. Inspections are for buyers knowledge only. Buyer will be responsible for all abstracting costs. Seller is The Secretary of Veterans Affairs. This property was built prior to 1978 and lead based paint potentially exists. This property may qualify for seller financing (Vendee). This is a must see!
