Opportunity awaits at 599 Kersey Rd. This 1-acre property offers a true fixer-upper for investors, builders, or buyers ready to create their own vision. The home has been vacant for some time and will require significant work. Due to current icy conditions, interior photos are unavailable, and the property is being sold as-is. The detached oversized garage provides ample storage or workshop space. In the rear of the property, you’ll find a barn with a second-level area currently used as an office, complete with a small heater—ideal for hobbyists or additional workspace. This property is on septic, and the seller will not accept offers that require a septic inspection. The septic system was functioning when the seller purchased the property; however, due to the age of the home, it is expected to fail a traditional septic inspection. For this reason, cash or non-contingent offers are preferred. What truly sets this property apart is its setting: directly across the street from a protected wildlife area that will never be developed, and surrounded by farmland, offering privacy, open views, and a peaceful rural feel. This is the perfect fix-me-upper/handyman special for those ready to roll up their sleeves and unlock the potential of a unique property in a beautiful, undeveloped location.
