Property Description

Previous sale fell through due to buyer financing. Fully FHA appraised! This is a great opportunity for first time buyers! This really cute cape cod in the lovely community of Elmhurst will be perfect for your new home! Brick front, vinyl siding and updated double hung windows! Two bedrooms on the main level and a large bedroom on the upper level that could have multiple uses. The full bath on the main level has been nicely remodeled! All appliances are included with a nice almost brand new refrigerator, washer and new dryer that has never been used! HVAC replaced in 2016. A sizeable kitchen has nice tile floors and subway tile backsplash! The cabinets are older, but decent quality and could easily be modernized with some new hardware! The basement was finished long ago and has a bar and half bath. In the unfinished area/mechanical room there is plenty of space and a sturdy work bench. Outside you'll find a nice fenced back yard that overlooks wooded land! An oversized, one car, detached garage is right out the side door! This will make a beautiful home with not much "sweat equity"! Due to the nature of this sale, it will be conveyed in "as is" condition, however home inspections are welcome.
