Description

Situated on quiet Firetower Road, this comfortably size lot has an approved LPP soil test and is newly surveyed. This is the perfect place to build a brand new home or place a manufactured home. It's comfortably wooded so you can create a private getaway, or clear out some trees so you can have a wonderful, open yard. There is a 40ft tax ditch right of way on the right side of the property. At 0.81 acres, this still leaves you plenty of room to build a house or drop a manufactured unit on the lot....Situated on quiet Firetower Road, this comfortably size lot has an approved LPP soil test and is newly surveyed.
