Located in the heart of Averill Park, this four-bedroom home sits on a spacious lot offering privacy, natural beauty, and the tranquility of country living, all just minutes from local conveniences, schools, and Crystal Lake. Since being temporarily off the market, the sellers have made significant investments throughout the property. A brand new roof with warranty, brand new drilled well, and brand new oil tank mean the biggest ticket items are already taken care of. A fully functioning half bath was also added on the second floor, and it is plumbed for a tub should the next owner wish to make it a full bathroom! Inside, the kitchen features brand new flooring and appliances that are only a few years old. These are exactly the updates that smart buyers and investors know carry the most value, significantly reducing risk and out-of-pocket costs from day one.

With the heavy lifting already done, your path to a stunning custom residence or a profitable resale just got a whole lot shorter.
