The gem is situated on a large corner lot with lovely front, and side lawns and a fenced rear yard with patio and storage shed. Enter this split level dwelling through the foyer, which provides immediate access to the laundry room, half bathroom and large family room. Also located on this level is the heating closet, which houses a new water heater and house heating/AC unit (both less than one year old). Just a few steps up from the family room you will find the full kitchen with newer stainless steel appliances. Continue from the kitchen into the full dining room and then into the spacious living room with large front window for lots of natural sunlight. Take the 4-5 steps up from the living room to the final level where you are greeted by three nicely sized bedrooms and the full bathroom. This property does need updating and requires a visionary new owner who can see and transform the current house into a home of aesthetic beauty and charm. Other homes in this area have sold for close to 300,000 and some above. Additional features are: close proximity to transportation and shopping, and the Joseph Greenberg School is 1/10 of mile away from this home. Bustleton is also regarded as one of the lowest crime areas in the city. The owner is highly motivated and will entertain all serious offers.
