A SOLID little house that is move-in-ready, with all appliances included! This property is located in a prime serene location on a deep half-acre parcel in Morris, but still only minutes from town. If you are looking for an affordable home south of the bridge; that is also located in one of Morris' most sought after areas, this-is-it! There have recently been some great functional updates to bring peace of mind, and save the next owner some serious money in the coming years. Including: New Roof and gutters (2024), All New septic tank/field (2020), Driveway paved (2023), New washer (2025), Toilet (2025), New microwave (2026), New Interior back porch entrance lights (2026). Modern Plumbing updates (2014) Full bathroom remodel and water heater replaced in 2014 after the last sale... The gas furnace heated outdoor shed with concrete floors offers additional exterior storage space, and the carport gives good coverage during inclement weather. To further increase the value, there have been discussions that the carport could be converted to an enclosed garage. The full basement is great for storage, and the foundation is very solid and square. As I always say, especially to first time homebuyers; Construction quality, level floors, overall maintenance, foundation, roof, and septic are the most important things to consider regarding homes in this price range, in unincorporated Morris... This checks all those boxes! Also something to mention: Hardwood floors throughout, and tile floor in the bathroom! The previous family utilized this home as a 2 bed, 1 bath, with the optional second bedroom in the east living room area. Regarding the property/parcel itself, there is plenty of outdoor space on this half acre parcel to put up a nice-sized garage, and make further improvements or additions on the south side of the house to build equity in the coming years! Grab your favorite agent today to schedule a showing before it's gone! All appliances stay! Low energy bills!
