About This Property

Affordable Berne Home with Excellent Garage & Workshop Space! If you've been looking for an affordable home with good bones, plenty of yard space, and a little extra room for your hobbies or business, this one deserves a look. This 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home sits on just under an acre with road frontage on both Merridale Dr and Route 443. The home needs some TLC and updating, but offers a solid foundation and plenty of potential. A wood stove in the kitchen/dining area adds warmth and charm while taking the chill off those cold winter days. There is an attached 1-car garage, but the real bonus is the additional 2-car detached garage with heat, previously used by the owner for his business. Car enthusiast? Home-based business? Workshop? Hobby space? This versatile building opens the door to plenty of possibilities. The spacious, open yard provides lots of room for outdoor activities, gardening, recreation, or simply enjoying the property. If you're looking for an affordable home with charm, land, and the hard-to-find bonus of heated garage/workshop space, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for!
