Listing broker remarks

Multiple offers, please submit best and final offers by Monday 12:00PMSeller reserves the right to accept an offer at anytime. Bring your toolbox, contractor, and creative vision, this vinyl-sided ranch offers a great opportunity for renovation and transformation. Set back from the road on a nicely sized, level lot, the home features a recently installed driveway and is surrounded by an established neighborhood of larger, well-kept homes. The interior is in need of substantial updating and remediation, including significant staining and a strong smoke odor from long-term smoking. Hardwood flooring is visible in portions of the home and the existing layout offers flexibility for an office, den, or bonus space. Town records identify the property as three bedrooms; however, the septic system is designed for two bedrooms and has a passing Title 5. For the buyer ready to take on a project, this property offers plenty of potential to renovate, personalize, and build value.— Mathieu Newton Sotheby's International Realty
