Or, both parcels together Adding the adjoining 4.95 Acres w/woods and the pond + its own drive for a total package of 499 5.95acres! Xtra Land is only available for the new owner of the home unless they choose to pass on their option to purchase before closing at which time it will be available. A plat survey has been completed but not recorded yet until we know what the purchaser of the home wishes to do. Photos & Plat / Aerials online. Many updates have been done to the house including a huge generous upper master suite + has a 4th bedroom or office which also could be a fantastic walk-in closet. 2ndLevel loft gives your family the ever so import buffer space and for those that need: 2 MAIN floor beds + full bath.

Yes, dated & the kitchen needs a makeover + there's some trim that needs to be finished but this is for the ones who want space inside & out and to make it their own.
