About This Property

Super cute and affordable move-in ready brick ranch! Just a short commute to downtown from here. When you walk in the front door be sure to look at the details in front of you - unique plaster cove detail on living room ceiling and arched openings add real charm to this one. Updated Furnace and AC, new front door, new slider out to huge patio. Vinyl windows, new light fixtures throughout and updated faucets. There's even a one car attached garage so you don't have to walk out to a cold car in the winter. Another huge bonus is this home is located in an NFC area with grant money available for qualified buyers for downpayment assistance and/or home improvements. Ask your agent to get more details.
