You will appreciate all this home has to offer without the price and taxes of being within city limits. Ripley is an underrated location for a value buy. Conveniently just over a mile to the lift bridge. Directly across the highway is an atv/snowmobile trail. About a 1/4 mile to Mt. Ripley. You will appreciate the sunny South facing porch with hardwood floors. The living room has a gas fired fireplace to relax by at days end or on a cold day. The home has Anderson windows. The main level has a room that could be a main level bedroom, library or an office. The upstairs has a designated laundry room. Outside is plenty of parking with the oversized lot. The wood fired sauna can be used year round. The main roof and upper chimney was replaced in 2020. A majority of the electrical was redone. Plenty of room for storage in the attic and in the full basement which has an easy access from the outside. No value assigned for garage because of it's poor condition.
