Property Description

 

Eligible for up to $10,000 down payment help. A Hidden Gem with Room to Make It Your Own! Don't let the outside fool you—this home offers more space and potential than you might expect! Featuring 2 bedrooms, with the possibility of a 3rd, and 1 bath with a walk-in shower, and living room wood floor, this property is full of opportunity for buyers looking to add their own style and personal touches. While some TLC and updating may be desired, several important improvements are already in place, including a new furnace and A/C in 2024 and a new hot water heater in 2026 and bath remodel in 2024. The basement offers additional possibilities, including the potential for a bedroom with the installation of an egress window. Step outside to your own backyard retreat featuring a kidney-shaped SWIMMING POOL, patio, and inviting sitting areas—perfect for relaxing or entertaining. An added bonus is the separate pool house/guest house, complete with a bathroom, kitchen, and heat, providing a comfortable space for overnight guests. Even more exciting, the adjoining .24 acre vacant lot is included, offering extra room for gardening, outdoor games, or simply enjoying additional space and privacy. Conveniently located on a quiet street close to shopping and restaurants, this property offers a unique combination of potential, outdoor enjoyment, and extra space. Bring your ideas and imagination—this hidden gem is a must-see!
