(UPDATE: I want to draw your attention to the updated disclosure. This property has a sad story; it was under contract and preparing to close and then experienced a freeze-up and the insurance company did not pay the claim. The property is now on it's way to foreclosure if it does not sell. The house does not present as well as the photos and the house has been winterized and we don't fully know the extent of the damage. The price is where the seller believes will break even and avoid a short sale. If we are unable to get an offer for this amount the seller will pursue short sale with a buyer that is ready to commit to the exhausting process to get to a closing. )
This lovely home is in a great location and on a very private 5 acre lot. There are 3 bedrooms, 1 1/2 bath and a BRAND NEW kitchen was installed this week. The living room has cherry hardwood floors and is open to the kitchen and has door to the deck for ease of entertaining. There is a full bath with jetted tub on the first floor plus a nice sunny bedroom with hardwood. Upstairs you will find 2 cozy bedrooms and one has a large walk in closet. In addition to all this, you'll be pleasantly surprised to find a partially finished walkout basement with floor to ceiling windows and a FULL kitchen and 1/2 bath. The laundry hookup is there as well. The new owner had a plumber and electrician go through the place completely and updated everything. They even installed brand new smoke c/o detectors. In addition, he had new insulation installed in the attic. Close to I95, you'll find you're conveniently located to everything. Only 3 miles to the golf course and Tacoma Lakes. With a spacious home, attached garage, long paved driveway, a beautiful private lot and a babbling brook in the back, it won't be long until someone calls this home! $5,000 appliance package included.
