Expansive Land and Picturesque Vistas Await! We invite those with a discerning eye to explore this ready-to-occupy residence nestled on a sprawling 18.12-acre parcel of land, free from any restrictive encumbrances. Presently configured as a three-bedroom, two-bathroom abode with a four-bedroom septic permit, it offers the perfect opportunity for expansion to suit your preferences. The third bedroom is accessible via an exterior walkway beneath the house, where additional space awaits your vision, including a workshop, a newly constructed deck, and the potential for expansion into the crawl space to create another primary suite or studio, among other possibilities. The main level boasts a generously proportioned living room, now enhanced with a recently installed sliding glass door that leads to a spacious, brand-new deck. Notable updates to this home encompass a reconfigured laundry area, two fully remodeled bathrooms, fresh interior and exterior paint, as well as a modernized kitchen featuring new quartz countertops, a sink, and stainless steel appliances. Furthermore, the property offers multiple additional home sites, making it an ideal choice for a family compound or for astute investors seeking a comfortable residence while developing the remaining home sites. These additional sites promise captivating mountain views, with a charming small stream meandering between a couple of them. The existing piers located at the front of the home also provide the opportunity to construct an additional outbuilding if desired. Certain images have been digitally enhanced to illustrate the potential for furnishings in the currently vacant space. Inquire for more details or to schedule a private showing.
