Property Description
A rare opportunity to own a substantial country estate offering approximately 5,481 square feet of living space on 10.07 acres in Rural Retreat. The centerpiece is a beautiful pond estimated at approximately three acres—an exceptional setting for fishing, recreation and peaceful country living. The spacious two-story home features four bedrooms, five full bathrooms and one half bath. Two primary suites—one on the main level and one upstairs—each offer a private ensuite bathroom. Inside, you'll find a grand great room; a large, open kitchen, dining and living area; hardwood and ceramic tile flooring; and a fireplace. Expansive covered porches provide even more room to enjoy the country setting. The primary heating system is a wood-fired hot-water system with radiators. An oil furnace is also present but has not been used in recent years, and its condition is unknown. A recently installed roof, representing an improvement of approximately $30,000, adds significant value. The property also includes a garage, barn and multiple storage buildings. The home is good and solid but ready for cosmetic updates and a new owner's personal vision. The rear deck, barn and garage need repair and restoration. With acreage, water, paved frontage on W. Lee Highway and convenient access to Interstate 81, this distinctive property offers remarkable space, character and possibilities. Square footage is based on public records and is approximate. Buyer and buyer's agent to verify.
