Offered for sale for the first time in over 80 years, this "Eastern Shore Original" farmhouse-style property boasts a double lot and new fixtures and amenities throughout. Built in 1940 and owned by one family until now, this home is situated off Zion Road, about thirty minutes from either beach or bay, with easy access to Rt 50, Rt 13, the Bypass, and North Salisbury's shopping district, yet is on a quiet residential street not encumbered by thru-traffic. This property includes three structures built across two lots equaling over one-half acre (deeded separately, and currently being sold as one parcel). The three structures include the main house, an Amish-built shed, and a generously proportioned workshop/barn. NEW updates to the main house include a NEW Heating and Air Conditioning system (installed by Wicomico Heating and Air), NEW designer-inspired paint colors on every surface throughout, NEW door hardware throughout (except where functioning vintage glass knobs were already in place), NEW closet doors, NEW bathroom fixtures, NEW vinyl-plank flooring, NEW lighting, NEW window blinds, NEW exterior shutters, NEW front-elevation shrubbery, NEW gas range, NEW range vent/hood, and NEW kitchen hardware! Other recent updates include thermal-pane windows throughout. Septic was inspected and approved by B. L. Phippin & Son Construction and Dennis DiCintio of Blue Wave Environmental Consulting. The workshop/barn includes a carport on the left side with room for one car, a generously sized workshop area is on the right with room for another vehicle, and the structure is heated by a woodburning stove. The Amish-built shed is a relatively recent addition to the property, and as-is would be perfect for housing gardening tools, garden furniture, beach gear, crabbing supplies, etc. - or, with a few updates and additions, could become the foundation for your outdoor kitchen, smokehouse, or "summer house". Behind and to the side of the workshop/barn and the shed is your spacious backyard. .. ready for your dream garden, playground, pool, or simply to be enjoyed in its current form. Make your plans to see this special property today. A conveniently situated home boasting this number of NEW features and updates, on a double lot, in this price point is rare.
