This darling ranch-style home is begging for a new owner with a vision and a desire to put down roots. Right out of the box you get a very spacious yard to chase around your new puppy, and a side deck where you can hang out and wave at your new neighbors (and an awning for excellent shade). As far as updates you might want to do, there's no heavy lifting required on this home--with replacement windows, a 5-year old Burnham boiler, similarly-youthful hot water heater, and newer oil tank, the expensive systems have been taken care of so you can spend your money and time making those lovely hardwood floors shine and poring through magazines and web sites for cosmetic inspiration. And talk about potential--the basement has roomy ceilings and walk-out access with daylight windows--it's just begging for you to add some fabulous finished living space! The location is hard to beat as well: You're just around the corner from the commercial conveniences of South Willow Street, not too mention easy access to highways going all directions. You're so close to three schools that a teenager could sleepwalk their way there and still get to class on time. The open space at the school complex is a great spot to toss a football or frisbee on the weekend, and you're also close to St. Anthony Park two blocks west. If you want a house that you can truly make a home, scheduling your showing, crunch your numbers, and then chase that dream!
