Property Description
A Fairytale Home Awaiting Its Grand Finale! Once upon a time, nestled on a quiet and serene 1.5-acre corner lot, stood a little cottage type home- strong, little sad, but still beautiful, and full of promise. Not fully finished but now has the heart and bones of a castle with all of its grand additions, just waiting for the right owner to come along & complete the story. Inside, you'll find rooms already kissed by transformation: hardwood floors, sparkling new windows, & walls opened up to let in light and laughter of everyday life. Kitchen has been lovingly updated with SS appliances, farmhouse sink, & marble countertops, ready to host magical feasts and midnight snacks alike. Up the stairs, a dreamy space awaits, an unfinished Primary Suite with soaring ceilings and windows galore, a grand Primary Bathroom. A canvas, waiting to become your private retreat in the clouds. Like Cinderella's slipper, it's the perfect fit for someone with vision. Main floor bathroom has already been enchanted with dual vanities, rainfall shower, & elegant fixtures, ready for the royal treatment. Down below, the basement was destined to become a movie theater, where stories could come to life once more. Step outside, and you'll find two beautiful new decks-one screened and welcoming at the front, the other strong and supported for future hot tub or secret garden nook. Even the garage is no ordinary structure, it's heated, insulated 3 plus car workshop, fit for crafting, tinkering, or storing a magical carriage (or three). Every corner of this home whispers of what's possible: new roof, siding, fascia, electrical, lighting, drywall & paint, Sep, electrical panels for garage & upper level, Room to finish, create, and dream. Though Not quite finished, this home offers something far greater... potential, privacy, & a price fit for a smart & savvy buyer. With a little love & imagination, it will be a palace. Your fairytale begins here! Will you be the one to write its next chapter
