Seller recently added a drilled well and conventional septic field, as well as a brand new 20 x 40 storage barn/garage with concrete approach and floor! Property enjoys year round access with underground electricity ran to the cabin. There are also two small storage sheds, as well as a new shed that would be perfect to add a sauna.
