Looking for a home with an acre of land at an affordable price? CHECK THIS OUT! This 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom home is beautifully maintained and updated and MOVE IN READY! Sellers updated the living room, master bedroom, and kitchen in the past 2 years. They installed new flooring and drywall along with updating the windows (2021), HVAC (2020), and their electrical panel. It sits on about an acre of land with plenty of space to entertain and play. The owners at one point used the bonus room and bathroom downstairs as a master suite. Home sits in a very convenient location: walking distance to the lake, Scovill Zoo, Muffley Elementary, and is a short drive away from grocery stores, restaurants, and other great features on the east end of town! Contact your realtor today for a showing! Room sizes not accurate until professionally measured.

This home feels like peaceful country. Big tree -- put up a swing. Very private! 2 patios, walk-out the lower level to one and out the main level to the other. The house itself looks small, but lives big. It's great for entertaining! While it is currently a 2 bedroom home, the prior owner used the lower level family room as a master bedroom. Just reinstall the door. The kitchen is easy to cook in and has a lovely garden window (brings in the relaxing backyard). You'll enjoy the warmth of the home in the winter (especially one of the cozy fireplaces); however, you'll be constantly drawn to the changing nature of the outdoors. There's a 1.5 car garage as well as a 30 x 21 carport that's 12 feet high. There's also a large dog pen which could be used for a huge garden. The home has lots of storage and a nice workshop area in the lower level. It has been lovingly cared for, and it shows. This home is good for the outdoor soul.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
