About this home

Diamond in the rough! There is potential to this 7 room, 3 bedroom Bungalow. It needs a new kitchen and bath, and paint to the interior and exterior. There are nice hardwood floors that can be refinished. Great location. Small lot. Being sold in "AS IS" condition. 2 window AC units included.
