About this home
Investor special with serious upside on 4 wooded acres! If you've been looking for a large ranch-style home with privacy, acreage, hunting, and the chance to create instant equity, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for. Offering nearly 3,900 finished sq ft with 2,001 sq ft on the main level, this walkout ranch sits tucked back in the trees and features a second kitchen in the basement, a 60x40 outbuilding/shop with an oversized overhead door approximately 17' wide by 12' tall, a gravel circle drive, and a pole barn. The roof appears solid, the bones appear strong, and once cosmetically remodeled, the value potential could exceed $580,000+. For the right buyer willing to do much of the work themselves, this property offers substantial sweat equity potential. This is the kind of place where you can truly create your own vision. Pull down the circle drive and disappear into the privacy of the hardwood trees. Step out the back and hunt deer on your own 4 acres or simply enjoy the peaceful wooded setting. The ranch-style layout gives you a highly desirable footprint with large square footage on the main level, and the walkout basement with second kitchen opens up possibilities for multi-generational living, guest quarters, or expanded entertaining space. The outbuilding is a major asset on its own. Whether you’re storing equipment, working on vehicles, parking RVs or boats, or running a hobby business, the oversized overhead door and massive interior space offer flexibility that’s hard to find. The additional pole barn only adds to the utility. Inside, this home needs cosmetic updating throughout—flooring, paint, fixtures, kitchens, baths, and most interior finishes—but for someone with vision and skills, this is where the opportunity lies. Hire the work out and create a beautiful estate, or do much of it yourself and build equity fast. Properties with this much square footage, acreage, privacy, and outbuilding space rarely come available at a price point that leaves this much room for upside. Bring your tools, your vision, and your ambition. This one could be a home run....
