The Sellers have recently painted the exterior of the home, garage, and the upstairs. Lighting fixtures have been updated inside and out. Stove and dishwasher are new as of last week. Flooring in the dining/kitchen were replaced four years with hardwood. Sellers have opted not to replace remaining floor coverings, and instead, pass those equity-building improvements on to the Buyers for their own personal choices. The home and land offer a great opportunity to add your own personal improvements, and with a little TLC, you will create significant equity while making it a truly special and personal place to call home. The oversized primary bedroom on the lower level could be split in order to create a fourth bedroom option. If you're looking for room to breathe and peaceful surroundings, this is the perfect place to trade the noise of the city for the peace of the country, without giving up the convenience of access to all your desired distinations.
