About This Home

Welcome to this charming 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath ranch located in the highly desirable Mona Shores School District! Nestled in a wonderful neighborhood and close to schools, churches, shopping, and everyday amenities, this home offers an excellent opportunity to add your personal touch and build equity.

Enjoy outdoor living in the fenced backyard featuring a shed for additional storage and new deck. The home also offers a fireplace that adds character to the living space; however, it has not been used in over 15 years. Buyer to verify condition and functionality. This home presents a fantastic opportunity for first-time buyers, investors, or anyone looking to make a home their own.
