Overview

Description

Discover an incredible opportunity in this classic rambler with unlimited potential! Situated on a corner lot with nice curb appeal, this home is "mechanically sound" and ready for its next chapter. It features several big-ticket updates already completed, including newer windows, a brand-new water heater, and updated plumbing, providing you with peace of mind from day one. Inside, the main level is bright and inviting, while the partially finished basement presents a massive opportunity for instant equity. With a few cosmetic updates, you can easily transform the lower level into a spacious family room, and even add a fourth bedroom to maximize the home’s value. Outside features a large deck and firepit within a fully fenced backyard, making it an ideal setting for entertaining or relaxing. While the home needs a little TLC to reach its full aesthetic potential, its sound structure makes it a standout choice for buyers looking to build equity quickly.
