About This Home
As of June 2022This was the Wentz family home since 1973. Both homeowners recently passed away of natural causes a few months ago. The local family members frequently stop by to check on the property. They are in the process of removing personal family items. Mrs. Wentz grew water plants in the large above-ground ponds as well as flowers and succulents still flourishing in several of the ponds and planters throughout the property. The Kitchen was remodeled about 15 years ago. You will note that while the "bones" are good a bit of TLC or upgrades may be warranted.
