Set on two beautiful acres, bordering a huge game preserve, this 3-bedroom home offers great potential as a weekend getaway, hunting cabin, or full-time residence. The home is wired for electricity and is currently powered by a generator, making it an excellent candidate for an off-grid solar setup. Some drywall work has been completed, but the home still requires finishing--providing an opportunity to customize it to your taste. The property also features a nice pole barn in the back, offering additional storage or workspace. Heating is currently provided by a small wall-mounted propane furnace. A great opportunity for those looking for privacy, acreage, and a project with potential.
