$$$Major Price Reduction! Sellers have already secured housing out of state and are motivated to make a move with this aggressive price reduction!!! Step into your own slice of country living. Nestled just out of town and surrounded by open farmland, this well-maintained 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath ranch sits on almost 1/2 acre and offers the tranquility buyers are searching for. Start your mornings with a cup of coffee on the front deck while taking in beautiful sunrises, and wind down with peaceful evenings and star-filled skies. Home needs a little TLC but does include some key updates including a new roof and furnace in (2016). In 2022, professionals fully encapsulated the crawlspace, updated the electrical panel, and improved lighting throughout. Family room was used as an extra prep kitchen. The exterior features an additional parcel, raised garden beds, a storage shed, and plenty of space to enjoy the outdoors. Conveniently located just 1 mile from the freeway, this property offers the perfect balance of quiet country living with easy access to town and travel. This is a great opportunity for buyers looking for value, instant equity, and immediate possession!
