Charming 2-Bedroom Home on a Spacious Corner Lot! Offering the perfect combination of recent updates, comfortable living space, and outdoor appeal. The home also features new siding and a new driveway, adding to its curb appeal and peace of mind. Complete with a 3 seasons room, offering additional living space and an unfinished basement with plenty of potential for future use. Did I mention the insulated 2-car garage with 220 VAC? Providing excellent space for parking, storage, hobbies, or a workshop! A new water heater was installed in 2025. Situated in an unincorporated property, with city water and city sewer services which add even more value and convenience! Did I mention the SUPER LOW property taxes! This home is a great opportunity for buyers looking for a well-maintained property with room to make it their own. Within walking distance to Phillips Park Golf Course, Aquatic Center, and petting zoo! AS-IS
