About This Home

As of July 2021

What a bright and cheery home! Just down the street from Wonder Lake and the private entrance to the association boat launch, pier and park! This home was updated this year with a brand new kitchen, new bathroom, and new light fixtures/ceiling fan. The new kitchen features soft close cabinets and drawers along with new stainless steel refrigerator and gas stove. Three solar tube skylights let natural light flow throughout the open concept kitchen and family room and will help keep your electric bill down. Large, freshly painted, wrap-around front deck that is large enough for entertaining with a small deck, concrete pad and bench seating out the back door. For the car lover or the mechanic or just for boat storage, you won't believe the oversized 2 car garage with work area, gas furnace for the winter and all the task lighting for whatever you would like to work on out there (with its own electric panel). Home has been primed and ready for your personal colors. Great neutral vinyl plank wood flooring throughout (2021). Newer windows on north and west side of home. Roof replaced within the last 10 years. Well pump just replaced too! What a place to call home at such a low price. The back yard is partially fenced in with an extra shed as well. Mature trees surround the oversized lot. Raised garden bed ready to start your own vegetable garden.
