Property Description

This charming Cape Cod style home sits on 1.87 acres in Unity Point school district with 3-4 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, 2 car garage, basement, a private fenced in front yard, and private woods in back (see the aerial view in the pictures). Built in 1946, the home features original hardwood floors, ceiling beams, an antique 15 glass pane French door; built-ins, unique closets, and a vintage Fire Boss wood/coal stove (although it has not been used/inspected by the current owner). The back yard has a chicken coop, an additional outbuilding, and an above-ground pool (all being sold in As Is condition). Septic was replaced in 2025 and new Energy Star HVAC was installed in 2021. The seller will provide a home warranty with American Home Shield (Silver Plan). The house and outbuildings will be pressure washed before closing. With some new owners, cosmetic touch ups and TLC, the possibilities for this unique property are endless.
