About this home

Versatile and updated home in the heart of Staples! Currently a 3-bedroom, this property offers excellent upside with potential for a 6-bedroom layout or duplex conversion with the addition of egress windows. Inside you’ll find refinished hardwood floors, fresh trim and paint, custom closets in every bedroom, and a built-in armoire in the primary that stays. Both kitchens feature updates, including new countertops on both levels, new appliances in the upper kitchen, and partial new cabinetry in the lower level. A former eat-in kitchen has been converted to an oversized pantry with extensive shelving. Major updates include new energy-efficient windows with added insulation, new central AC, plumbing improvements, updated bathroom vanity and plumbing, new entry door, garage door openers, and a replaced furnace exhaust pipe. The upper living room features built-in surround sound. Outside enjoy a fully fenced yard with a new wide gate for camper access, large 2-stall detached garage, shed addition, firepit, raised garden beds, and fruit trees with cherry, pear, plum, and apples, and plenty more. A unique opportunity with space, updates, and future potential.

How SODL buyer credits work

When you buy with SODL, the brokerage charges a flat $3,000 platform fee at closing. The remaining buyer-side commission (typically 3% of the purchase price) is credited directly back to you at closing, reducing the cash you bring to the table.

  • Tour homes with SODL’s flexible showing network
  • Submit offers and manage your transaction through the platform
  • Keep more money at closing through transparent flat-fee pricing

A clear, modern way to buy with expert guidance and meaningful savings.
