Looking for a serene area within minutes of the St Marys River Camp Pickney Rd Public Boat Launch? Look no further. This 2 bedroom 1 bath home is located on a nice lot with a large workshop and two additional sheds. Enjoy the tranquility from the full front porch or the screened in back porch. Open concept leans well for this kitchen and living room area. The bathroom has a large vanity, utility linen closet and shower. The kitchen and 2nd bedroom both open to what was a 3rd bedroom that the current owners have converted to a flex room/den family room or would be great for a large office craft space. The laundry room is in this location along with access to the back screen porch and the additional front door to the front porch. The double car metal carport with concrete deck is located in the front of the home. Seller will put on a metal roof on main house prior to closing with a full price offer. This would be a great full-time home; part time get away or investment as a short- or long-term rental. The county information on lot size conflicts with the actual warranty deed and the county has the property listed as a 3 bedroom.
