Do you have a vision for your dream home? Tucked away at the end of a long private drive and surrounded by 1.76 acres of mature oaks, this partially renovated property offers the perfect opportunity to bring it to life, just minutes from Tioga. Much of the heavy lifting has already been done: new roof (2021), new windows and doors, Hardie plank siding, fresh sheetrock, new kitchen cabinetry, and stainless steel Samsung appliances. It’s better than a blank canvas, it’s a head start! Inside, the home centers around a spacious open-concept kitchen and dining area, large enough to add a cozy sitting space. A central staircase separates this area from a bright family room with a fireplace and windows all around. A half bath is tucked behind the stairs for convenience. Off the kitchen, a hallway leads to a massive laundry room and a private in-law suite with its own full bathroom, perfect for guests or extended family. Upstairs, you’ll find three generously sized guest bedrooms and a full bathroom, along with a large primary suite featuring an en-suite bath and walk-in closet. With plenty of space to add a pool, workshop, or garden retreat, and an estimated ARV of $480K, this property offers both potential and flexibility. Bring your vision and make it your own.
