About This Home

As of August 2024

Retro Ranch with Simonton Lake deeded/shared easement, only one owner for the nearly 60 years! Needs cosmetic updating but all the heavy lifting has been done in the past few years. Updated roof, windows, furnace, air conditioning, water heater. Fireplace in Living Room. Home owner mitigated a small mold problem in basement in 2019. Chimney as been tuck-pointed and new critter caps installed. All appliances stay, including W/D and DeepFreeze (Appliances are in As Is condition with no warranties expressed or implied.) Additional Bonus: Hardwood floors in almost every room. They've had carpet covering them since owner moved into home 60 years ago. Pull up the carpets and love the hardwood. Enjoy the lake this summer with the neighborhood LAKE EASEMENT. No Pier space available for boat at this time; on waiting list.
