Opportunity is knocking, and this one comes with plenty to work with! 8 Ord St. in Salem is a 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home with a traditional layout, some distinctive original details and the kind of flexibility that gives a new owner plenty of room to make it their own. The enclosed front porch is a fitting introduction to a home where the spaces are comfortably defined and ready for a fresh perspective. The living room occupies the front of the home, while the kitchen extends into a separate pantry and prep area with the kitchen cabinetry, sink and dishwasher. Some of the cabinetry has been updated, adding function and useful storage to the space. Continue through and the dining room delivers one of the home's most appealing details, with hardwood flooring and built-in cabinetry that brings character and function together. Upstairs, three bedrooms and a full bath complete the second floor. The bath features a newer laminate floor and tub surround, while the straightforward layout throughout the home provides a solid starting point for whatever changes the next owner may envision. Outside, the gently sloped, fenced yard is framed by established shrubs and flowering plantings, giving the property a welcoming backdrop and room to garden, gather or simply enjoy the outdoors. Andersen insulated windows were installed in 2017, and the exterior was painted approximately two years ago. For buyers looking for a place they can truly make their own, this home offers the chance to create something special over time. Bring your ideas, imagine the possibilities and make this home distinctly yours! This is an estate sale, and the property is being sold in as-is condition, except for a new roof to be installed prior to closing. No representations are being made by Seller and/or listing agent. Some photos virtually staged, as labeled. Open Houses Fri.,10/2 5-6:30PM and Sat., 10/3 12-1:30PM.
