Even better, it is now vacant and ready for a quick possession.Built in 1960, the home offers 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, a fireplace, a finished basement, and a carport. The main level has been thoroughly cleaned and freshly painted, so you can walk in and picture yourself living here from day one.

For added peace of mind, the seller is also installing a new sump pump.There is still room to add your own updates, and the home is priced to reflect that. Whether you're a buyer ready to make it your own or an investor with an eye for potential, this property rewards vision. The lot configuration and zoning in this pocket may support conversion to a duplex, triplex, or the addition of a coach house at the rear.
