About this home

Legal frontage and acreage for two lots. House needs updating including septic, electrical, original roof, etc. Original owner planned to use the current house as a garage and build a home later on the second lot, but never got "a round to-it". Small part of land in Paxton balance in Spencer. Level lot wooded. Backs up to gravel treated air strip for private airport. Adjacent to newer construction. Original owner going into senior housing. Will not go traditional financing. Please note termite treatment disclosure ( treated in 1977). This home is on a slab with drains under the garage leading to a drywell. In RR zoning area 60,000 sq ft per lot with 200 feet frontage. Could build 2 family with special permit from Spencer. Perfect for investors or the very handy person who is not afraid of extensive repairs. Priced below assessment to reflect condition. Sold as is where found. Home is neat and clean. Public water and sewer not available in this area of town.
