Property Description
Welcome to your private mountain retreat! Nestled on 4.3 unrestricted acres, this 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom home offers the ideal combination of serene mountain living and daily convenience--located just minutes from town. Arrive via a private, well-maintained paved driveway that winds through the lush landscape. The property features a small, hidden creek offering soothing natural sounds. With over 4 acres of terrain, there is abundant room to expand--whether you envision building an additional cabin, adding a garage or workshop, establishing a garden, or creating a outdoor entertainment area. The existing 3-bed, 1-bath home presents a blank canvas for investors, renovators, or DIY buyers looking to build equity. The home is being sold AS-IS and requires repairs and updates, making it an exceptional opportunity for a custom overhaul, a fix-and-flip, or a future rental investment in a high-demand area
