About This Home

As of December 2019

DON'T THINK "SMALL" WHEN YOU HEAR THERE'S ONLY 2 BEDROOMS. YOU WON'T BELIEVE HOW MUCH ROOM YOU'LL HAVE! AND OWNERSHIP COMES WITH TWO RIVERFRONT LOTS!! 2 bedroom, 1 bath home with detached 2-car garage. The dining room off of the kitchen is large enough to entertain guests without feeling cramped or crowded. And wait until you see the spacious living room! All of this sits on a full, unfinished basement. Recent improvements to the home include laminate flooring in the kitchen and dining room, plus carpeting in the living room and both bedrooms. Professionally rewired in 2013 with recessed lighting added throughout the house at that time. Tile added in the bathroom with new sink and mirror. Modern front loading washer/dryer set stays as well as a newer bottom freezer/refrigerator with water & ice dispensers. In this classic small town setting, you're just a short walk from conveniences such as a bank, church, restaurants and more. The community park in only a quarter-of-a-mile away and features tennis & basketball courts, baseball/softball diamonds and swimming. Access to I-69 is within a mile of your front door. Cross the street and cast a line in the water from either of your riverfront lots. Watch the turtles sunning themselves on a log while you wait for the flock of geese to come in for a splash landing. If you're lucky, you may even catch a glimpse of the occasional bald eagle!!
