About 1046 E Water St

HANDYMAN SPECIAL! Great potential on a nice large lot close to Central Park and the sports complex. Large front porch w/ newer front door leads you into the living/dining room combo with hardwood floors. Two bedrooms off of the main living area, kitchen towards the rear of the home along with an updated bathroom w/ walk in shower. Laundry is located on the main floor in the enclosed back porch area. Washer/dryer stackable stay with home. The mechanicals (HVAC & water heater) were replaced in 2021 along with basement insulation, blown-in insulation in attic, walls, and chimney tuck pointing. With some remodeling and elbow grease you can turn this house back into a home.
