About this home

Welcome to 2496 Porter Rd! This two bedroom ranch is situated on close to an acre lot in a country setting. Home features finished hardwood floors in the kitchen and carpeted bedrooms. This home has many recent upgrades as the home was purchased in 2005 as partially unfinished property. Recent improvements include a new furnace in 2015, hot water heater in 2015, and a finished addition that included the living room and kitchen in 2011. New roof to be installed in the coming few weeks. This property is located in a flood zone and a flood insurance quote can be provided. This large flat lot would make the perfect spot for entertaining or watching nature as the property backs up to the woods and has a small creek that flows through. Put this one on your tour today.
