Description

A Unique Offering with several options, so let's get creative! Almost 3 acres very close to town, buildable sloping property in the County with less restrictions. Option 1, keep the house which sold "as is" gut-job-fixer-upper and earn rental income. Option 2, tear it down and start over, apartments, employee housing, or 3-4 nice cottages could work here. Option 3, might be the perfect land for mini-storage facility or other light commercial. Truly an "open canvass" for the discerning Buyer/Investor....A Unique Offering with several options, so let's get creative!
