Unbelievable opportunity to create your own little slice of heaven in the countryside of Hartly. This is a spacious 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home with sunroom addition on 1.5 acres. This home failed septic inspection, and a new one will need installed, hence the pricing of this home. Septic installation to be done at buyer's expense and seller will not do any repairs to the home. It has had a site evaluation for a mound system in the front yard. This home could use updating on the inside, but if you just imagine the space and what it will look like with some updating, this is truly a diamond in the rough. There is about 1/3 of an acre still wooded, as the current owner wanted to create a nature-filled environment, but with no wetlands, you can remove trees for a larger yard. Make sure you check this one out before someone else seizes the opportunity.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
