Great opportunity to use some elbow grease and create a great home for yourself. The estate chose not to do the updating so you can figure out how you want to personalize to your own taste. It is livable as-is but most buyers will want to customize - expose the HW floors under the carpet, add a shower to the bath area down, modify the kitchen and maybe even create a 4th or fifth bedroom on the lower level. There is lots to like...huge living room with fireplace, 3 bedrooms on the main level, generous dining room with a sliding door accessing the backyard and a fully fenced yard. You'll appreciate the extra-wide yard with space for a camper, RV or even a boat. That's in addition to the 2-car garage. You're not far from shopping in this friendly neighborhood. The home has durable siding and mature landscaping. Roof is in good shape. Perhaps a rehab loan? Or live there and do improvements little-by-little. There is so much to love about this property. Priced to sell as-is.
