WHY RENT WHEN YOU CAN OWN? Affordable, private and offering a unique setup you don't find every day! The main home features 885 sq. ft. with 2 bedrooms, 1 bath and a cozy fireplace, plus a 1.5-car garage. Need additional space? A separate 1-bedroom, 1-bath efficiency space off the garage provides flexibility for extended family, guests, a home office or additional living needs, bringing the property to approximately 1,050 total finished square feet. Outside may be just as appealing! Enjoy a large covered deck, a fenced yard, and approximately 1/2 acre offering plenty of room to relax, entertain, garden or let the pets play--all in a surprisingly private setting. Currently renting? This could be your opportunity to make the move to homeownership. Current property taxes do not reflect applicable owner-occupant exemptions; taxes may be lower once eligible exemptions are filed. With an affordable price, private setting, extra living space, garage and a large lot, there's a lot of value packed into this property. Schedule your showing today!
