Solid and full of potential! This 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath, all-brick bungalow is built to last and offers tons of value for the price. The full, usable basement has been professionally waterproofed by Helitech (2020/2021) and comes with a lifetime transferrable warranty—plus laundry area and mechanicals. On the main level, you’ll find a warm and inviting living room with hardwood flooring, an eat-in kitchen, two spacious bedrooms (one with a convenient half bath), and a full hall bath. Upstairs offers a flexible den or office space and a roomy third bedroom. Outside, enjoy the covered front porch, a one-car detached garage with workshop space. All appliances stay—including the washer and dryer!
