One of the bedrooms is tucked away in the attic, which also features an expansive unfinished area-perfect for transforming into a family room, additional bedroom, or even a second bathroom.

A charming enclosed four-seasons room adds versatility to the layout, and the two-car garage provides ample storage and convenience. While the home does require a full rehab, the bones are solid and the layout is ideal for customization. Please note: the staircase leading to the attic has a hole-enter at your own risk!

Whether you're looking to flip, rent, or create your dream home, this one is worth a closer look.
