About this House

The perfect opportunity to own this cute bungalow right by the fairgrounds! Low maintenance living, with 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and main level laundry. A great opportunity to own property, instead of rent with an affordable price. It would make the perfect investment property as well, or Airbnb. All the cosmetics are updated and the home was redone down to the studs just a few years ago. A brand new two stall carport was just put in the back for you to park in. A nice fenced in backyard to enjoy if you have pets. There is a full security system installed as well that is staying with the home. Schedule your showing today!
