Opportunity knocks! This long held family home has character and charm along with one of the largest lots in Ballard Acres. Close to schools, shopping, entertainment and so much more. Prior to 1976, it was an original cape cod, this family made it larger and created the mansard style home it is today, then added the garage in 2005! Many expensive upgrades have been done; roof in 2020, furnace in 2019, dishwasher in 2015. Main floor has hardwood, second floor is carpet. Bring your ideas and wishes and see the possibilities with a little work. All bedrooms have great closet space and bonus room is perfect for crafts, play or additional work/office. Home sold as is, all remaining personal property at the time of closing included.
