Description

A little sweat equity will go a long way in this single family home in Chestnut Hill Estates. Offering 4 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms with a large rear yard, this home has tons of potential. Enter through the side porch from the driveway, screened in and gives access to the rear yard, also where the new oil tank is protected from the outside elements. The side door comes into the kitchen with a brand new dishwasher, 3 year old stove, and a pass through window to the dining room. Everything in the kitchen...A little sweat equity will go a long way in this single family home in Chestnut Hill Estates. Offering 4 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms with a large rear yard, this home has tons of potential. Enter through the side porch from the driveway, screened in and gives access to the rear yard, also where the new oil tank is protected from the outside elements. The side door comes into the kitchen with a brand new dishwasher, 3 year old stove, and a pass through window to the dining room. Everything in the kitchen is functional but dated. Anderson windows throughout the home. The second level is only 6 steps up and offers 3 bedrooms, full bathroom, and pull down attic steps. The lower level offers a den, 4th bedroom, laundry room, and small powder room adjacent laundry. The rear yard has two sheds and is very flat for everyday use. Older updates include replacing asphalt driveway with concrete, new plywood sheathing when roof was replaced, and water heater replaced in 2017. This home has been cared for by the same owners since 1984. Make your appointment for this gem and don't miss your chance, it will not last.
