There’s ample room for vegetable beds, chickens, or even a hobby barn. This bungalow is solid and full of potential—ready for your personal touch.

The covered side porch is perfect for quiet mornings with coffee or evenings listening to birdsong. Kids will love the open space to roam barefoot, swing from trees, or help tend the garden. This property isn’t just a home—it’s an investment. With significant road frontage, it presents future subdivision or development potential.
