Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1987, the home is well-maintained but largely reflects its original era. While it features significant infrastructure updates like a new well and septic (2021) and modern stainless steel kitchen appliances, the cabinetry, flooring, and overall aesthetic remain dated. It meets the 'fair' criteria as a functional, aged home that has undergone regular upkeep but lacks a comprehensive modern renovation.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 271379, living area = 1788.
Situated on 6.25 acres in the East Foothills, this property offers exceptional privacy and seclusion while remaining conveniently close to town and lake recreation.
The installation of a new well and septic system in 2021 provides significant value and peace of mind, reducing the risk of major immediate capital expenditures.
With all bedrooms located upstairs, the floor plan may be a drawback for buyers seeking single-level living or those with mobility and accessibility concerns.
