An incredible once in a lifetime opportunity! Offered for the first time by the original owners. This home has been well maintained and sits on a rare piece of property - almost one full acre: .96 to be exact. It features a large outbuilding shed with concrete floor and electricity. The garage is stable but could use just a little tender loving care. This home has been in the loving care of the original owner, since it was built. Never sold until now. Think of the history and the future. Everything is up to date and is move in ready. It's believed to have hardwood floors under the carpet; some areas have never been exposed to wear.
The one-acre vacant lot, next door is also available (MLS #20261020521), same seller. Sold separately but could be made into a package deal.
Located in the heart of Waterford Township, where everything is in close proximity to schools, restaurants, entertainment, lakes, parks, commuting for work. This home combines it all, space, location, charm and opportunity.
