Great opportunity in this sprawling 4 bedroom, 2 bath, all brick home, on 1.32 acres! Originally built in 1963, the Main Level features 3 Bedrooms, Living Room (now used as the Dining Room), and Kitchen with a small Dining Area. In 1969, the Upper Level was added, featuring a huge Primary Bedroom with Ensuite Bath and Walk in Closet and spacious Family Room. The two levels are separated by 4 steps, which transformed the original Ranch home into a Split Level. Kitchen includes a wall oven, electric cooktop, exhaust fan, refrigerator. Laundry is located in the Kitchen, typical of homes built in the 60s. The home has been well maintained overall. In 2022, a new roof, guttering and deck were added, ductwork was cleaned, and floor vents replaced. New 14 SEER, 3 Ton HVAC (inside and out) was installed in 2018, and carries a 10 year parts warranty. Home needs some TLC, including floor covering, interior painting, trim and sheetrock work, and updating. Both baths are in very good condition, although Primary Ensuite Bath is dated. Concrete block storage building needs some work. Fenced dog lot and brick cook pit convey. Home is served by a private well and septic system. Septic drain field replaced in 2010. With a little work, this home could become a showplace! Refrigerator, washer, and dryer convey, although not warrantied. Sundial Lane serves as the driveway to this property, leading to the parking area for this home, and provides a right of way for a few homes that sit farther back in the woods. This property is the perfect ‘sweat equity’ opportunity, as the sellers have taken care of the expensive structural and mechanical updates, leaving the fun and creative renovation projects for the new owner!
