About This Home

As of April 2019

Oversized 2 bedroom ranch within close proximity to highly rated amity schools. This home has had many costly building components updated within the past 10 years including the roof, well mechanicals, septic tank and fields, waterproofing in basement, furnace, central air system and hot water heater. There are hardwood floors throughout the dining area, large living room and bedrooms. The kitchen and large breezeway are tiled for convenience and ease to clean. There is a lot of space here and with a bit of creativity, there is potential to add a 3rd bedroom or bonus room. The large 2 car garage has plenty of room to store both your vehicles and lawn machines, which you'll want for the 1.2 acre lot. This is the perfect opportunity to get into a great school district at a great price!
