Full of charm, possibilities, and potential, this home is ready for its next chapter. All that’s missing is you! Seller has not occupied the property. To the seller’s knowledge, the home is equipped with an electric heat pump for heating and cooling. A natural gas meter is located on the exterior of the home, with gas lines running to the water heater and fireplace. Seller cannot confirm whether the fireplace has ever been operated using natural gas and makes no representations regarding the fireplace’s gas connection, operation, or functionality. Buyer and buyer’s agent are encouraged to independently verify all information, including utility connections and system functionality.
