Huge 4 bedroom 4 bath house on 1.14 acres overlooking a large pond, with an attached 3 1/2 car garage, a chicken coop, machinery shed and large pole barn for the RV, boats or use as a workshop, all on a quiet country road in Alva. NEW ROOF prior to closing (see Supplements), both air conditioners are recent; two and three years old, oversized well equipment and water storage with a septic system. The first floor has two bedrooms and two bathrooms, a large, remodeled kitchen and dining area adjacent to the living room, the laundry room is almost cavernous affording plenty of room for storage as well. The upstairs is also two bedrooms and two bathrooms with real wood plank flooring. The western bedroom has a very large walk in closet and has the wiring connections for the security system. The living area upstairs includes a large country kitchen, dining area and living room area that accesses an open porch through french doors overlooking the pond. Outbuildings include; one large pole barn, a shed, a smaller shed and a chicken coop with one chicken. The previous owner used the upstairs as an in law living area. This is an incredibly large house priced below market value due to some deferred / cosmetic maintenance issues. The person with some vision, willing to invest some elbow grease, will have immediate equity in this beautiful property in a very fine upscale country neighborhood. Act fast; this will soon be someone else's treasure.
