Are you ready to hear the roosters crow in the morning, but still be close to shopping, activities and entertainment? This one checks all the boxes. Large rooms, an abundance of light, two sets of French doors, built-ins and original millwork. Finished sunroom on the front of the home adds extra space for a guest room, office, hobby room, etc. Previous owner had a travel camper and had the electrical service available to park in the extra parking area on the North side of the property. You are sure to enjoy the summer evenings in the oversized, detached outside entertainment room and fenced in walking garden. This corner lot is the perfect location for the gardening enthusiast. There are some areas that need improvement; a new roof, plaster ceiling repair in dining room, a bathroom vanity, a couple handi-man jobs, therefore not allowing us to accept some financing due to possible predications. Being sold, 'as, is'. Additional Rooms: Sun Room
