Property details

About 7 Mcdonald Ave

This 3 bedroom/1 bath ranch is absolutely move-in ready! Whether you are a first time home buyer or someone looking for a downsizing opportunity, you can stop looking. This is it! The painting and the flooring and the newer windows and the many other updates are the definition of 'low maintenance.' The front porch beckons as you enjoy your morning coffee. Later, move to the back yard, which is partially fenced and can be utilized for entertainment, or as a play area, or perhaps, for your pet(s). Beyond the fenced area, enjoy wide-open green space, consuming much of the 0.60 lot. It is almost country living, but is conveniently located close to nearby transportation, shopping, and dining. By the way, it is also Maroa-Forsyth Schools! Call your realtor and set up a tour today.
