The seller has requested that the property be placed in the multiple listing service as a single family home. The west apartment has three bedrooms. The east apartment has two bedrooms. Of course, there are 2 kitchens, 2 living rooms, and 2 full bathrooms. 2478 square feet. This was a single family home. Converting back to a single family will be relatively simple for a carpenter or homeowner who knows about opening up a wall. There is a 6' wide marriage wall inside the front doors. If you do not know of a qualified carpenter our office will introduce you (or your buyer's broker) to a qualified carpenter. 3 corners of the one acre site are marked. The front west stake is a metal fence post approximately 60 feet to the west of the west entrance drive. The front east stake almost lines up with the propane tank. The well is in the front yard near Timber Creek Road. The septic system is located in the back yard between the garages. Except for the bathrooms and kitchens, all the flooring is hard wood including the hall ways . Closets and interior room entrance doors are unpainted wood doors. Most of the interior trim is natural wood. The bathrooms are decent. They were refurbished in 2008. We have the master bedroom being 20' x 14'. This is actually a bedroom suite. There are two connected rooms . The family room as stated is actually the kitchen on the west side of home and is shown in photo #5. The roof is approximately15 years old. There are two furnaces and two water heaters.
