About This Home

Serenity with a side of sweat equity! Located in Lake Hamilton School District, this 2+ bedroom, 1.5 bath mystery box sits on 7.92 glorious, unrestricted acres—meaning you can build a second house, a yurt, a goat palace, or just do donuts on your tractor. No HOA here, folks. You're the mayor of this mini kingdom. Inside? Well... let’s just say it’s a "complete fixer-upper"—which is RealtorTM code for “bring a dumpster, a contractor, and possibly a priest.” The property is ever-so peaceful. The kind of views that make you question your life choices... but in a good way. Watch the sunrise with coffee or the sunset with a glass of something stronger after trying to patch drywall for six hours. The small pond contains water, wonder, and possibly amphibious neighbors who will not pay rent but will judge your choices. This is not just a house - it's a journey! An adventure of questionable logic but infinite reward. Bring your imagination, your grit, and your best overalls. Greatness (and probably sawdust) awaits. (SEE AGENT REMARKS)
