The laundry is in the mudroom with access to the back step and the outside entrance to the walk out basement. The yard could be finished off with grass or kept as off street parking. Seller is including a one year home warranty for the buyer. You could buy this house for under $750 a month! Why rent when you can own? Also would make a great investment property as these rent very well!
