This house is beautiful and also teeming w/ potential. This 2 bed, 2 bath is hidden in a wooded pocket away from the world. With an open concept & a 30 x 25 pad attached to this house, this could very easily be the home of your dreams. This property sits back in the trees & is located on the banks of a small stream, this is perfect for someone looking to get away and reconnect w/ nature. The attic is unique as it has stairs from the walk-in closet in the primary bedroom and is fully finished making it great for storage or even an in-home-office! The seller has put a lot of time & care into the property to bring it up to its current state, but w/ a little work & vision it could be something beyond special. Don't miss your opportunity to own this spectacular property!
