The second floor also offers the laundry room in close proximity to the bedrooms.

The septic system was inspected in early August 2025 and is in need of replacement; the owners have initiated the replacement process which will be completed prior to settlement. The new system will be a standard gravity fed system. The dwelling has an owned, surveillance system with one interior camera in the attic area and three exterior cameras. The surveillance system is not currently activated although can be made functional. The propane tank for the gas fireplace was leased and will be removed; the new owners will need to provide new service of their choice. Whether you're a first-time buyer or looking for a solid investment opportunity, this move-in ready home has great potential.

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
