    What's special

    Step into the charm of a bygone era with this historic 1937 bungalow, where timeless character meets endless potential. Nestled on more than 3.5 picturesque acres just steps from downtown Fenton, this one-of-a-kind property offers the rare opportunity to enjoy the peace and privacy of country living without sacrificing the convenience of shopping, dining, parks, and community events. Roof and gutters were just installed in 2021, sewer lines from the home to the main line were redone in 2020, along with the additional drainage throughout the lot. Inside, you'll find original hardwood floors, authentic architectural details, and the warmth that only a home with decades of history can provide. Every room tells a story, waiting for someone with vision to write its next chapter. While the home is ready for updates, its solid bones and undeniable character create the perfect canvas for restoring its vintage beauty or blending classic charm with modern comforts. Imagine sipping your morning coffee while overlooking your own acreage, planting gardens, hosting family gatherings under the shade of mature trees, or simply enjoying the space to breathe. Whether you're dreaming of your forever home, a peaceful retreat, or a place to create lasting memories, this property offers something increasingly hard to find: history, land, and location. Bring your ideas, your creativity, and your vision! Schedule your private showing today, this treasured bungalow is ready to become the home you've always imagined. Detached garage with woodshed, and chicken coop come with all contents left at the time of closing. All financing types welcome, this property qualifies for USDA, all mortgage required repairs to be completed by and at the cost of the buyers. BATVAI
