1955 Craftsman Short Sale

Morning All, thanks for your input.  Cute craftsman home belonged to older couple.  After he passed she went to live with children. House has been on/off market since 2014 and price has dropped $20k.  I saw several business cards when I visited, so it is showing.

3 bedrooms (master large, other 2 small)

2 average bathrooms

CHA, separate 2 car garage & workshop, on 3 acres, close to everything, nice area

Good kitchen with stove n DW; water heater, cabinets in good condition

Security system in place, good roof

Cons:

Floors somewhat bouncy, thresholds little higher than necessary, hardwood floors, some linoleum

Galvanized plumbing (ugh!)

Master bedroom & bath are clearly additions. Coded?

Windows are vintage

Having  house inspection done before making offer, but should I make an offer?  Have already been to the property, but the more I think about it the more doubts I have.  Please shed some light on my dilemma, all input is greatly appreciated.
