Quaint, secluded home located on approximately 6.9 acres. This home has so much to offer at an affordable price point. As you enter the property, you cross Tumbling Creek over a solid wooden bridge. The gravel drive takes you gently up to the home as you park around back and enter the home from the side or the back. This home was originally a 3 bedroom home, converted back to a 2 bedroom, but could easily be put back to a 3 bedroom. The large kitchen and living area take advantage of the light coming in from the front porch and give the home a very comfortable feel. There's plenty of storage on the back side of the home, and depending on content, the new owner could convert the room to another living area. There's central heat and air, along with an AC wall unit, 2 stoves and a generator. You'll be comfortable no matter what time of year. Owners are willing to sell the home furnished and are open to entertaining offers with the understanding that the home is being sold ''as-is ''. Inspections are welcome, but not to be leveraged for price reductions. All information deemed reliable. Buyer / buyer's agent to confirm all information.
