About this home
This house will surprise you on every level! Large raised rancher/cape/2-story with tons of potential for lots of additional living space. This all brick home features a really peaceful front porch that is perfect for relaxing. You enter into the bright living room that features a large bow window. There are 3 bedrooms on this level plus a very nice full bath. One of the bedrooms has another bathroom that is not quite finished but is plumbed for a shower. The rear of the home features a dining room with fireplace and another bow window and large kitchen. So, where does the extra potential come in? The basement is massive and has plenty of room for additional living space. It is on the walk-out level and has a garage door. There was once an apartment in the basement and there's just so much room that can be finished. The second floor of the home is a clean slate and ready for a few additional bedrooms and a bathroom. Like I said, tremendous potential. The home sits on a double lot so there's plenty of yard space. There is a ton of off-street parking in the rear of the home. We picture this property being a great match for a number of different buyers. Perhaps you have a contracting business or some sort business with vehicles. The property includes 2 separate outbuildings. One is a shop and the other is a detached garage. Did you know that there was an apartment in the detached garage at one time? ** Please note that any potential future use needs to be verified and the zoning guidelines are attached in Bright documents.**
This is a great amount of house and land for a great price. Close to everything!...
