This property offers a unique opportunity for those looking to put their personal touch on a home, as it is a "handyman special" in need of some tender loving care.
Upon entering the home, you'll be greeted by a cozy front den, perfect for relaxing with a good book or enjoying some quality family time. Adjacent to the den is a spacious dining area, ideal for hosting gatherings. The first floor also features a nicely sized kitchen, providing ample space for culinary enthusiasts to whip up delicious meals.
