1960s cottage in the woods at high elevation. Fixer upper with 2 extra lots. The cottage is very private and sits on a nice wooded half acre parcel with a big wrap around porch and full basement. The cottage is in disrepair from being vacant for several years. It needs a new roof, decking, and major cleaning of the cottage and clearing all the vegetation. The back bedroom floor bounces and needs checked out for structural support. If you are handy, at this price you can have a great getaway cabin in the woods in a very nice location near many expensive homes. (No septic permit found at Jackson County Health Dept.)
