Discover a unique opportunity to own a charming mid-century modern, split-entry home nestled on a spacious, level acre. This property offers a blend of classic architectural style and practical features ideal for both comfortable living and versatile use. The original house, well-maintained over the years, awaits your personal touch and creative updates to truly shine. A highlight is the expansive detached shop, perfect for hobbies, a workshop, or additional storage, complemented by a separate lawn equipment room for all your gardening needs. Enjoy peace of mind with a brand new, state-of-the-art 3-bedroom septic system installed this year, and the convenience of an individual well providing reliable water. The property includes a sunroom, currently unpermitted and in need of repair, presenting a great value-add opportunity for savvy buyers. The grounds are dry and level, offering plenty of space to cultivate your dream garden, entertain guests, or simply relax and enjoy the open surroundings. Sold in “AS IS” condition, this home is perfect for those seeking a solid foundation with incredible potential in a lovely rural setting, as it is a "fixer". The sunroom addition does leak and was possibly not permitted to be enclosed.
