About This Home

As of February 2023

Are you looking for a unique home set in a wooded location that you can put your personal touches on? This 3 bedroom, 2 full bath home might be it. This home was custom built for the original owners who used it for some very specific purposes, and you can become the second happy family to enjoy it with a little work. The beautiful views and sunshine from the South facing bank of windows, enjoying coffee on the deck, walking the trails thru the 5 acres of wooded land and sitting around a bonfire in the backyard all make the work worth it!
