Handyman special home is in need of remodeling, but has been lived in until just recently. Main floor consists of a large kitchen, 2 bedrooms (one large and one smaller one), living room, and a small bathroom. The basement level is a walkout basement that is unfinished, except for a nice office room that has been used as a photography studio room. Home is heated with a forced air/fuel oil furnace and is presently heated and operational. Detached 26 x 22 one stall garage with a wood burning stove for heat. The location is quite nice with access from West Shagawa Rd. on the front side and a driveway to the back of the house and garage from another street. . Property has a private feeling-- being at the end of the road and also adjoins county and city property to the west where there is an older bridge over a small creek and a nearby trail that is used by snowmobilers/skiiers in the winter, and hikers/runners in the summer.
