About This Home

As of March 2025

Well Cared For 3BR / 1BA Ranch with a MASSIVE 3-car garage! Located just outside of town to escape the hustle & bustle but close enough if a quick trip to the store is necessary. A two bedroom addition was built in 2018 that included a new roof for the entire house. Shopping, restaurants and cultural events are 10 minutes away in Farmington, while Wilson Lake is only 5 minutes and provides all-season water recreation. The home is efficient to heat and easy to maintain!
