Beautiful land, and potential building site! There is an existing driveway separate from this updated 2 bed, 1 bath home to a potential building site. The 5 acres has been surveyed and has frontage on Wagner as well adding to the potential to split the land into two new building sites in addition to the existing home. 2 car garage, a storage shed and an additional two-story building that may have been the original house on the property. The additional building has a new roof, new windows, re-enforced foundation, electricity as well as water and sewer hook ups and other updates so that can be used as a studio, office, guest suite, work area or whatever you may be looking for. The home has many updates including new flooring throughout, new refrigerator, new sliding glass door, new front door and a new washing machine. The room in the back of the home provides additional space that can be used as an office or sitting area. The roof on EVERY building is less than a year old. The 5 acre property also includes a cleared area for camper with electrical and water supplies as well as a second cleared area on the back four acres for potentially building a second house, storing boats or other equipment, etc. The improvements on this property are so much more than aesthetic, with structural improvements, new gravel, utility additions, etc. List of updates and improvements available.
