As a bonus, there is a second large bedroom suite above the oversized two-car attached garage which could also serve as a large in-home office with separate entrance through garage and up the stairs. At only $299,000 the price per square foot is only $65 not including the large lot, upgraded septic system, appliances, & window coverings. A new furnace was installed 11-18-20 and misc repairs were completed early January 2021. With a few easy updates it will be an enduring treasure. Truly worth a look!
