Property description

AS-IS Sale , well cared for home, but Sellers will not make any repairs. Electric needs to be updated, but an estimate has been provided for less than $3,000. Adorable 2 bedroom bungalow on Rt 8 with a 1 car detached garage and a very large yard. The circular driveway makes for easy in and out onto Rt 8 and the home is within walking distance to Dover High School. The enclosed back porch is a great place for a home office with a large closet, counter & cabinet space. The mudroom includes additional cabinet storage and counterspace as well. The kitchen has enough space for a nice 4 top dining table and includes quality built cabinetry. While the appliances may be dated, they don't make them like they used to! The Central AC was recently replaced and the metal roof isn't too old either. This property would make a great rental investment with minimal improvements or a sweet place to call home and enjoy the roses!
