About this House
$5000 PRICE REDUCTION on great 2-story home in an excellent small town close to the Metro! This stately 2-story home in Baxter features a number of updates including a recently replaced roof and new gutters and soffits. Located in a friendly neighborhood close to the excellent Baxter Community Schools and community parks, this 3BR/1.5BA 1580 sf home has much to offer. The main level features large dining and living areas with refinished maple flooring. The second level offers 3 large bedrooms with original hardwood floors and a full bath. The 3rd-story walk-up attic could be finished for even more living space depending on the buyer's needs and desires. The full basement has recently had egress and daylight windows added and offers storage options galore. Outside the large rear deck opens to a nice yard with front privacy fencing as well as chain link leading to the oversized and heated 2-car garage with 10' ceilings. The successful buyer will likely want to continue some updating to the home adding their own personal touches so with an acceptable offer, the Seller is offering $5000 flooring/update allowance to the successful buyer at closing to assist, and may be negotiated. Not enough? The seller is also offering a 1-year HSA Home Warranty for the successful buyer! This is a solid home with outstanding potential and your ticket into an excellent small-town community at a GREAT NEW PRICE!
