About this home

If you want country but close to shopping this is it. Big home on 3 acres. 5 beds, 3.5 baths, Home needs updating but good sturdy home. Screened in porch for those summer days. Lots of trees and a big shed . Horses are allowed here, Owner says he had 4 horses there at one time. Home needs some paint and flooring but so much room for growing family. Water heater one year , furnace and air are not to old but owner doesn't have exact date. Lots of possibilities here !! Owner prefers to sell as is, they are moving out of state so not able to be here to fix anything Seller providing Home Warranty for Buyer. Home is on city water but there are 2 wells on the property, one is hooked up to outside faucet for outside use. Everything will be cleaned out by closing time. Owners getting ready to have estate sale so some boxes, etc sitting around.
