Description

Check out this great east side bungalow! All the work has been done for you and it is ready to go, would make a great home for a first time buyer or investor. some of the features are: vinyl siding, hardwood floors, over 1300' of finish on the main floor, updated bath, new roof, updated kitchen basement just waterproofed with a 41 year warranty, all appliances stay. the family room has brand new carpet and most of the home has been repainted inside. There is nothing to do but move in! If that was not enough there is a 3 car garage plus a 1 car attached garage. The attached garage is heavily insulted and would be very easy to convert to a huge Master Suite!
