Property Description
This home was once elegant and is now primed for transformation. Vacant for several years, it offers strong bones with electric and plumbing upgrades completed between 2022–2024. The upper two levels are in good to fair condition, making this an excellent fixer-upper with real upside. Solar panels were installed in 2022, electrical system upgraded in 2022, plumbing updated in 2023.
The main level features an open-concept layout with a foyer, a living room, a dining room, and a family room off the dining area. Upstairs includes a primary bedroom, two additional bedrooms, and a shared bath, plus a semi-apartment setup with a kitchen, bedroom, and sitting room - ideal for flexible living or future income potential.
The basement features a large full bathroom, a laundry room, a utility room, and direct access to the parking area and the grassy outdoor space. The basement was previously used as a bedroom; please wear a mask when viewing.
⚠️ Safety Note: Do not access the deck—it is unsafe.
