From the listing

Great opportunity for an investor or owner occupant! This 3-bedroom, 2-bath single-family VA foreclosure offers a spacious layout with a large living room, office with storage room, and inside laundry. The kitchen features a large dinette area and access to the backyard but needs all new appliances. The office has a separate front entry door and sliding glass door leading to the side patio. Outside, enjoy a partially fenced backyard with a brick patio and storage shed. No HOA! This property needs work but offers plenty of potential for those willing to put in the effort.
