About this House

What's unique:Beaded heart pine ceilingsNew windowsNew main roofNew front porch
House in downtown Hammond for sale. All exterior renovations are complete with exception to soffit and facia and a small section of roofing to the addition (see pictures). As far as the interior, the living room is pretty much complete with heart pine 1x16 walls and beaded heart pine ceilings. The rest of the house is studs. The next step is to start plumbing top-out/ rough-in. I would love to finish this project but I simply don’t have the time as I’ve had to redirect much of my attention elsewhere. This would make a great primary residence, short-term rental, or long term rental. I will add interior pictures soon.

Items completed:
-New main roof
-New front porch
-New front porch roof structure and black metal roof
-New windows
-New additions to both sides
-New OSB sheathing & house wrap on entire exterior
-New Hardie plank siding
-All exterior siding and trim painted
-Termite treatment completed last year
-New foundation seals where necessary
-House was re-leveled
