Back on the market! Buyers default - no fault of the seller. Step inside and marvel at the gorgeous natural woodwork that’ll have you feeling fancy without even trying. And yes, there's a split staircase—because why take one route when you can take two? If dramatic entrances (or exits) are your thing, this house has you covered. Speaking of covered, wait till you see the front porch—perfect for sipping coffee, tea, or whatever gets you through the day while watching your neighbors wish they lived here too. And for those chilly evenings, gas heat will keep you warmer than the heart of your high school crush. Ready to host some dinner parties? The formal dining room is ideal for impressing friends or pretending you're part of a fancy period drama. And let’s not forget the **detached** one-car garage—it’s like a personal fortress for your car, lawnmower, or that half-finished project you’re totally getting around to someday. The full unfinished basement and walk-up attic provide limitless opportunities—whether it’s a secret lair, storage for your questionable shopping habits, or just a really big empty space that screams "potential." Closet space abounds too, meaning you can hide all your clutter and pretend you're a minimalist. The bathroom features a bathtub/shower combo with a molded fiberglass surround, which sounds very fancy, but really just means it's nearly impossible to mess up. Perfect for bath time battles with kids or unwinding after a long day of pretending to be an adult. All appliances are included, making this house truly turnkey. Just bring your toothbrush and your best Pinterest boards, and you're good to go! So if you're in the market for a home that's comfortable, affordable, and has enough charm to make you forget about your long list of adult responsibilities—this is the one.

How insights can help you

Interest rate

If the seller has a low interest rate, they may be tempted to rent the property out if they can't get the price they have in mind.

Motivation

If the seller already got a job in a different city, they may feel pressure to sell quickly to free up cash for a new home.

Equity

If the seller stands to receive a large amount of cash when they sell the property, they might be willing to negotiate on the offer price.
