Description

Solid walk-out ranch home on 7 acres nestled at the end of a cul-de-sac road just minutes from town. Looking for the ability to live all on one one floor? Look no further as the main level features a comfortable living room with vaulted ceilings, main level laundry room, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a 3 car garage for ample storage, as well as a covered back deck and screened porch to enjoy the serenity of the backyard and surrounding woods. The fully finished basement provides more functionality with a 4th non-conforming bedroom and a storage closet. The house has solid bones but is in need of some revitalization and has been priced accordingly. Sold in its present, as is condition. Seller will make no repairs. If you're looking for peace and privacy you've found the right place.
