Here's a 7.4 acre site with a 960 sq ft fixer home on the way to Mount Baker! There's a privacy fence along the road and a big, level area to build your dream home. Use the existing home to live in now, when you build or as an ADU? Garden infrastructure remains; another large completely fenced in area with a big hoop house frame and plenty of rich soil in the ground for one massive truck garden...and lots of well drained parking. Possible owner contract with large down. Out of the flood plain. Domestic water right.
