Opportunity is yours!! This "handy man" special is ready for your summer project and enjoyment. This unique home offers a 2 bedroom, 2 bath, raised ranch home on over 6 acres adjacent to Lake Lemon. The current owners had made improvements such as new appliances, adding mini-split's, ceiling fans and lots of yard clean up. Then life stepped in and the work has stopped. A new owner will have the benefit of those updates and also any building supplies currently at the home will be included. The lower level bathroom was removed so that an undiagnosed water leak could be repaired, but it has not been "put back", giving you the opportunity to make it how you like. This will be and "as is" purchase, so please use the AS IS addendum with your offer.
