Why buy an empty lot when you can buy one with some landscaping and hardscape? This terraced, level lot sits in a nice area near Noble Orchard. Some homes in this area survived the fire so you have a few neighbors! The driveway and a dog run are intact, along with much of the back landscaping. Chain link fencing on three sides of the backyard. Power available at the property. There was a 1246 sf mobile on the lot that might give building credits with the town. Please note that most pictures were taken in spring of 2019 and show how well it survived the fire. There has been some deterioration of the landscaping but water is on the property with a backflow. The owner has been running a sprinkler and the landscaping is coming back nicely. Build here and get a landscaped back yard.
