OPPORTUNITY awaits at this brick cottage style ranch home in Riverview Park! This 3 bedroom, 2 full bathroom home has been a rental for a bit but is ready for someone to love it as their own again. Nice layout with the kitchen right off the carport side entry and windows across the front where the kitchen and dining room are located. The kitchen has a brand new wall oven as the old one didn't work and the owner left a brand new garbage disposal that needs to be installed. The dishwasher also does not work. The living room is on the right side of the home. The fireplaces have not been used in a long time so please always get an inspection before using. Off the living room is a covered patio that holds so much potential to be a private, cozy spot to spend time outdoors. There are 2 bedrooms on the main level with a full bathroom between. The upper level has a large bedroom and full bathroom. It would make a nice primary suite. The carpet was just removed on the upper level and the oak flooring will refinish beautifully. We believe there is hardwood flooring beneath the rolled vinyl flooring on the main level as well. The lower level has a family room, workshop, utility space and laundry. The lot is a nice level rectangular and there is a shed in the rear. Ample parking with room for 3-4 vehicles in the driveway, the carport and a one car garage. Great location in the park and easy to show!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
