HAPPY home sweet home! This place just radiates JOY! From the moment you pull in, you can feel it! Sunny & cheerful one level home on the Middle RIVER you will feel as though you are on vacation all the time! One of a kind home with a split bedroom design, soaring ceilings in the great room, true formal dining room, and fantastic primary suite too! Offering over 2500 sq ft with an oversized garage! The beautiful park like lawn is just over 2 acres and blooming with color! Nestled back in a sweet low traffic neighborhood that homes are rarely sold in... popular Fort Defiance area, super convenient to I81! Did I mention RIVER FRONTAGE? Yep. Bring the fishing pole & kayak! Just a touch over 200 feet of frontage but don't worry, the home is NOT in the flood zone. Better HURRY!
