About This Home

Great Rehab Opportunity or Starter Home for a handyman. Priced at near land value. Unlock the potential in this 5-room, 2-bedroom with additional bedrooms in the attic. Perfect for rehabbers or Handyman buyers ready to build equity with a complete makeover. Home has 1.5 bathrooms and a full low ceiling basement. Some improvements have already been completed in recent years, including new windows, roof, furnace, hot water tank, and copper water lines- offering a strong foundation for your renovation vision. The home is ready for a full cosmetic refresh, updating and some deferred maintenance, making it an excellent value-add opportunity.
