About This Home
As of January 2025Here's the perfect retreat in the highly sought-after Grand Lake School District with this precious 3 bedroom cottage sitting on a generous 1.135 ac parcel of land. If you've been dreaming of a serene & convenient lifestyle, this home is the one. The cottage exudes a classic elegance complemented by the lush greenery around it. Step inside & your heart will skip a beat as you enter the large remodeled island kitchen. The design maximizes every inch of space, showcasing beautiful countertops & an abundance of cabinets. It's a chef's dream offering both style & functionality. While you are in the kitchen, take a moment to appreciate the tile flooring that provides durability and easy maintenance. The rest of the home is adorned with 3 " Solid wood flooring that needs a little TLC, but still adds warmth and character to each room. The property is being sold "As Is" with some refinishing needed. You will have a neutral palette that can be used for your own creative vision. Don't let that deter you though, b/c this home has endless potential. A special feature that sets this property apart is the 12x28 Man Cave attached to the carport. Wiring already run(needs to be hooked up) & waiting for your personal touch. For the outdoor adventurers, there's a 50 AMP receptacle outside the Man Cave that can be used for a camper. Last but not least is a 24x30 metal workshop for hobbies or storage. Property is above the required BFE of 9ft, lowering flood insurance considerably. Rare opportunity, so don't wait, your future is knocking. Call me for your private showing!
