    Looking for a home you can make your own? This spacious fixer-upper offers the opportunity to update and personalize a property where many of the most important and costly system upgrades have already been completed. With a large kitchen, generous living areas, an oversized bathroom with a garden tub, and flexible rooms throughout, the home provides plenty of space to create a layout and style that works for you. Significant improvements include newer sewer and water lines, approximately 90% new PEX plumbing, updated electrical wiring completed around five years ago, and an HVAC system that is also approximately five years old--giving you a strong foundation to build on as you make cosmetic updates. Outside, the property sits on a spacious lot with mature trees, fenced areas, covered porch space, and multiple storage buildings. A 20x20 powered shed offers additional possibilities for a workshop, studio, home office, hobby space, or future guest quarters, subject to applicable zoning and approvals. Whether you are looking for a primary residence you can improve over time, a property with room for your hobbies and projects, or an opportunity to build equity, this home offers space, privacy, and plenty of potential. Bring your ideas and make it your own.
