Description

Perfect first home for the handy home owner This home features 3 beds and 1 bath on the upper floor, 1 bed and 1 bath on the main. Large kitchen, dining, living room. One car detached garage. Ample parking outback. Mature trees and a corner lot. This home has been well loved. It does need some updates and repairs, but all in all, a very solid home that would be easy to live in and put your own finishing touches on.
