Property Description
Discover a fantastic opportunity to customize this charming home, featuring over 1,100 square feet of living space on over 9 acres of peaceful woodland in beautiful Highlands East. This property is perfect for relaxation and recreation, making it an ideal retreat for solo adventurers or couples seeking tranquility. Don't miss your chance to transform this house into your sanctuary, providing an escape from the demands of everyday life. The original homestead, built in 1890, has a timeless charm, sturdy stone foundation and a new addition in 1986. The house features two functional bedrooms, a newly renovated four-piece bathroom, and a spacious open concept family/kitchen room with close to an additional 340 sq. ft. in the attic. The metal roof provides low maintenance and adds a vibrant red charm. Recently, the property underwent substantial improvement, especially in its structural and foundation. The full basement foundation has been recently waterproofed. The unfinished wall-insulated basement consists of two large rooms with two separate entrances, close to 510 square feet of space, and is connected to the other. A new forced-air propane furnace provides convenient heat during winter months and an additional wood-burning fireplace in the main family room, guaranteeing that the property offers ample wood. You can put the final touches on this 1,100-plus square foot home in a private setting with over 9 acres of lush woodland. Wilbermere Lake is just across the street, adding to the serene ambiance. Whether you're an individual or a couple, this is your chance to create a cozy home where you can unwind from the busyness of life.
