Description

Very cute cape cod style home across the street from the Ford Lake public access site. Home was built in the 1970's and just needs some updating now. The heat source is the living room space heater but there is a partial basement under the living room, accessed from the door in the floor in the hallway- there is an older (likely not working) furnace in the basement, and the water heater is in that space too. Home has 2 bedrooms on the main floor and 2 unfinished bedrooms on the second floor. Large...Very cute cape cod style home across the street from the Ford Lake public access site.

Home has 2 bedrooms on the main floor and 2 unfinished bedrooms on the second floor. Large main floor utility room with plenty of storage and an enclosed entry to keep the weather out and warm air inside. Wood flooring in the LR and main floor bedrooms is in nice shape. The enclosure between the front door and living area could be removed to make the front entry a larger and inv iting place to greet friends and family.
