About this home

Calling all investors, property flippers, and handyman dreamers-this one is bursting with possibility! Tucked into a country setting on 1.99+/- acres in Nebo, this 3 bedroom, 2 bath house is waiting for the right visionary to bring it back to life. In addition to the main floor you have a heated and cooled walk-out basement with a bathroom w-shower and has opportunities limited only by your imagination. The fenced backyard was once a spectacular entertaining area with an inground pool, water feature, fire pit and dog lot and can be restored again. Additional features are level yard, gardens pot and large outbuilding. Property is offered "as is, where is". The good news is it is already cleaned out, giving you a blank canvas ready for restoration. Roll up your sleeves and imagine the transformation you could create inside and out.
