Description

This 3 bedroom, 1 full bath home features vinyl siding and a sweet tin roof, front porch and a shed in the HUGE 100 x 150 lot with so much potential for a fantastic garden with a lot of sunlight. Maybe a swimming pool? Add a pole barn or a nice garage and there would still be a lot of space left on this very nice corner lot in a quaint little town. Gibson City Schools for the kids too. Square footage is deemed accurate but not warranted. There is a lot of room to grow here!This 3 bedroom, 1 full bath home features vinyl siding and a sweet tin roof, front porch and a shed in the HUGE 100 x 150 lot with so much potential for a fantastic garden with a lot of sunlight.
