This vintage home has good bones and has been loved by the same family for over 50 years. Walk into the 2 story foyer for a circular floor plan that starts with the living room. The large carpeted living room has a wall of windows and a wood-burning fireplace. From there you walk into the dining room, with hardwood floors underneath, that either leads to a wonderful 3 season porch, overlooking an enormous and beautiful backyard or you go back to the heart of the home that takes you into the kitchen, with windows also overlooking the backyard, or the lower level with the laundry, bonus room storage, and attached garage. The 3 bedrooms are also off the foyer. All bedrooms, with hardwood floors underneath the carpet, are good sized with ample storage. This home sits on .80 acres and is a great candidate for expansion. Walking distance to award winning Plum Grove Junior High. Easy access to shopping, restaurants and major highways. Great potential for a rehabber. Whether looking for a home to make your own or an investment property you do not want to miss this opportunity. Many great improvements: A/C Lenox condenser (2022), Lenox HVAC (2012), hot water heater (2012), updated electrical panel. The home is sold "as-is". With a little TLC, it will be magnificent! Please note roof, garage and dishwasher require repair or replacement, seepage during some storms along east basement wall. Please review/request disclosures. Please do not walk the lot without an appointment. Home is occupied.
