A LITTLE PIECE OF PARADISE! This 5 -bedroom, 3 bath home sits on 5.5 acres just .6 mile east of Giant City School. This parcel is partly wooded, partly open, and mostly level giving you many options for how you choose to use the land. Inside the entire first floor has new luxury vinyl plank flooring & a fresh coat of paint. Upstairs there is plush new carpet. On the main floor is a "Granny" bedroom/ office with a full bath nearby. Within the last 7 years the owner has replaced the roof, 2 furnaces, 2 central air conditioners and the hot water heater. The electrical boxes & light fixtures have been replaced and the wood burning fireplace was upgraded. Two walls were removed to give you more of an open floor plan. All three bathrooms were completely gutted and remodeled. The kitchen has newer black stainless appliances. Wait...there's the steel siding was professionally spray painted this summer & the landscaping has been refreshed. Bottom line, you could move right in without worrying about repairs or remodeling. There is an unfinished basement with a Hobby Room that was once used as a dark room. In addition to the two-car attached garage, there are 3 outbuildings. An older shed that could shelter a few animals, an older concrete block 60 x 24 workshop (as-is) & a storage shed. Plenty of room for your equipment, tools and maybe a boat! The home sits on a hill with a rocking chair porch giving you an overview of the larger parcels surrounding this property.
