Buyer will benefit from owning a brand new septic system paid for by the seller. Enter through the expansive front yard and covered porch into the living room, with a versatile storage room or potential second home office tucked to the side. Continuing toward the back, you'll find the family room with a gas fireplace. One bedroom is conveniently located off this space. Beyond the family room is a dedicated home office area. The spacious primary bedroom features a walk-in closet, providing ample storage. Flowing from the home office is a bright dining room that seamlessly connects to the kitchen, both with cathedral ceilings. A sliding glass door leads to a back deck and spacious yard. A laundry room and the third bedroom are tucked away behind the kitchen for privacy. The updated full bathroom features a stall shower, while a half bath is conveniently located off the dining room. On the opposite side of the dining room, you'll find the fourth bedroom. There is also an attached manufactured home providing more living space for whatever fits your needs. The home is being sold in as-is condition, and is priced accordingly to reflect the need for the drainfield repairs or replacement (septic inspection report is uploaded). Seller will place $37K in escrow with any extra monies being returned to the seller upon septic work completion. Recent improvements include a brand-new septic pump, septic controller, and new floats. With 9-foot ceilings in five rooms, this home offers a great layout and a wealth of possibilities. Don't miss your chance to make this home your own!
