Description

Welcome to 136 Kentucky Avenue in the neighborhood of Pleasant Hills! You'll love the potential of this solidly-built brick twin home that sits on a level lot with its own driveway, deck, and shed. Just a few steps to the front door under a covered entrance and then step inside. There's a living room, kitchen with adjoining dining room and a bonus room with full bathroom at the back of the house. From the bonus room, you exit onto the deck where you can add a grill, seating, an umbrella... whatever completes your outdoor oasis. Back inside, you can access the basement from the kitchen. There's a room that was previously used as a family room, plus a bonus work room beyond that. It's a great space for wood-working or other crafts. On the second floor, two nice-sized bedrooms await you, plus another full bathroom. This sale is an estate sale, and the property is being sold in "as is" condition. Though there are no disclosures since the executor never lived in the property, there are a few repairs needed, so the Seller asks for the Buyer to use fix-up financing or cash to make the purchase. Need help with fix-up financing? Have your REALTOR ask the listing agent for information. The bonus room on the first floor was added with no permit; no permit will be supplied.
