This secluded 4-bedroom, 2-bath home sits on a private 3.91-acre parcel, accessed by a long driveway and surrounded by mature trees for maximum privacy. This property offers a full basement and an attached 2-car garage. Fire damage has affected the main living areas and systems, offering a blank canvas for investors or buyers looking to rebuild this home.
