## Description

### Agent Description
Move-in ready and packed with expensive updates! This charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath ranch offers incredible value with a newer roof, newer furnace, and newly replaced sewer line, giving buyers peace of mind for years to come. The unfinished basement is ready for your personal touch, offering excellent potential to add additional living space, a family room, home office, or workout area. Situated on a generous lot with both a 2-car detached garage plus an additional single-car garage, there's plenty of room for vehicles, hobbies, storage, or a workshop. Located in an NFC lending area, qualified buyer's may receive up to $15,000 in forgivable Neighborhood Finance Corporation assistance PLUS an NFC closing cost credit, making home ownership even more affordable. Conveniently located with easy access to downtown, shopping, restaurants, parks, schools, and major highways. Don't miss this incredible opportunity.
