This delightful ranch has a great open floor plan with hardwood floors, large windows, and an eat-in kitchen. The house is on a beautiful, half-acre, tree-filled lot in a great community near parks and the Montgomery mall. There is a great stone patio where you can enjoy the peace and quiet of the cul-de-sac, and yet the house is close to Route 270 and the metro and bus system.
During the home inspection, several issues arose with regard to needed repairs, including a new roof and moisture control in the basement. Skilling Properties brought in trusted vendors to assess the condition of the house and provide estimates for the necessary repairs. Skilling Properteis successfully negotiated $20,000 of the estimated $25,000 in repairs to be provided to the buyer who will complete the work and some additional renovations they plan to undertake.
