INVESTOR SPECIAL — WILL NOT QUALIFY FOR NORMAL FINANCING! Bring your vision to this property (OVER 4,000SQ. FT.) and situated on over 5 acres, offering recent improvements and an unfinished two-level addition with room to expand. Updates to the double-wide include a new roof, siding, and gutters. A new survey is also available. The main finished home’s heat pump is approximately 7 years old, and a new Mitsubishi unit serves the smaller double-wide addition. Built approximately 9 years ago, the unfinished addition features a brick fireplace on each level and sliding exterior doors on both levels. HVAC ductwork and much of the electrical wiring have already been run, and a heat pump/furnace has been installed but has never been operated. This space offers an opportunity for the next owner to complete the project to suit their needs, subject to county requirements and approvals. The county has the addition’s plans on file and has indicated that completing it to include an additional bedroom would require upgrading or replacing the septic system with a larger system. The current septic system serves a 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home. The siding contractor lost the double-wide’s HUD certification label during siding replacement. With acreage, recent exterior improvements, and expansion potential, this property is ready for an investor with a plan. Buyers should verify permits, completion requirements, septic capacity, and HUD documentation.
