    What's special

    Expansive four-car garageCustom kitchen
    Home has over 3118 sq ft of living space! This property gives you the opportunity to make it yours but with so much done already! This residence will astonish you with its expansive four-car garage! Imagine family gatherings around the massive maple butcher block island for any festive holiday. The custom kitchen features quartz countertops that wrap around the kitchen. The cozy living room has a gas stove that warms the space and overlooks the large back yard. The basement gives you great options for storage or flex rooms. The 2nd floor has been insulated with $35,000 worth of spray form, sheet rocked and ready for your choice of flooring. There is some mudding, taping and painting to do in 1/2 the space. The rooms up there are quite expansive and could be turned into several bedrooms or a large family room with flexible options. The laundry room is waiting for flooring, and the bathroom needs a vanity and tub. The seller is leaving that construction to the next buyer. Owner has a quote for ceramic tile installed in the shower, flooring in the bathroom, laundry and carpet for the upper level and staircase for under $16,000. Trim is needed throughout the home. The electrical & plumbing is completely new throughout. This included a new furnace, A/C, and water softener. The water heater was replaced last fall (2025). The whole house, not the garage, is spray foamed by Tri County Foam out of Alexandria. The plumbing in the upstairs bathroom is stubbed in and ready for a bathtub up against the walk-in shower wall. The kitchen was installed in 2023; Granite Falls Woodworks made the maple top. The wiring is ready to be hooked up for 220 in the garage, ready to run welders or bigger powered equipment. Come take a look at this amazing home! Ask about a conventional loan that gives you the money to finish off the upstairs. We have info on that!
