Fully rehabbed ranch on a double lot in a quiet wooded setting, just blocks from Lily Lake and Moraine Hills State Park. Imagine owning a home where the work is already done: Gutted to the studs in 2004, rebuilt with new roof, windows, plumbing, electrical, and followed by updated septic ('12), well ('14), furnace ('20), and water heater ('20). That peace of mind is priceless, and it means you can focus on living instead of fixing. Inside, wood laminate floors flow through every room, with recent upgrades like a new washer, dryer, fridge, smoke detectors, and closet shelving. Outside, the detached garage with screened porch gives you space to relax while your yard stretches back into the trees. Whether you are downsizing or buying your first home, this is a rare chance to secure the lifestyle most buyers want but can't find. Homes like this, in this location, at this price point, do not sit long. Act quickly!
