While the wooden exterior of the home and garage needs some TLC (chipping/peeling paint), don't overlook the "move-in" ready interior with hardwood floors, main level bedroom and updated "vintage" look kitchen. The spacious living room with newer maple hardwood floors has an area that could be a dining room so current formal dining room could be used as another bedroom by adding doors (as there is a closet in that room). Eat-in kitchen has been updated with IKEA cabinets and newer countertop for "vintage" look. Main bedroom has pine wood floors, oak trim and closet in hallway. Full bath with tile tub surround and tile flooring. 2nd floor is an open space (needs some TLC) but has large "walk-in" closet and add'l storage space and was used as 2nd bedroom. Enclosed porch/mud room adjacent to kitchen to rear yard has built-in cabinets and counterspace. Efficient gas for heating, cooking and water heater. Roof '14, new sewer line from house to street (2010), replacement windows on 1st floor. Basement is "partially" finished with separate rooms, laundry area with cabinets and workshop area, bilco door for exterior access. Detached garage has for bay for 1 vehicle, however two additional areas for storage or workshop. Great home with a lot of potential in a very convenient location. Walking distance to grocery store, restaurants, shopping and YMCA activity center.
