Description

Classic charm, generous living space, and endless potential await in this stately two-story home in the heart of Forest City. Featuring 4 spacious bedrooms and 1 full bath and 2 additional 1/2 baths, this property offers the opportunity to restore and customize a timeless home with character throughout. Hardwood floors extend across the main and second levels, complementing the large formal living and dining rooms. A beautiful sunroom/parlor with abundant natural light creates the perfect space for relaxing, reading, or entertaining. The kitchen is ready for refinishing and offers excellent potential for redesign. A convenient half bath is located just off the kitchen, while an additional half bath in the basement is in need of repair. Some finishing work remains on the main stairway area where drywall installation is needed following damage from a frozen pipe in 2024. An insurance claim was filed, and the furnace was replaced with a brand-new system in 2025, though the owner was unable to complete all remaining repairs. Upstairs, you will find four comfortable bedrooms, including one featuring a cedar closet. The expansive walk-up attic offers exciting possibilities for future additional living space, home office, or recreation area. Outside, enjoy a covered front porch, attached one-car garage, large partially fenced rear yard, and convenient walkability to Main Street shops, restaurants, and local amenities. This is a rare opportunity for buyers looking to invest in a classic home with strong bones, original charm, and outstanding potential.
