Additionally, this property benefits from an established neighborhood, utilities, and strong local demand, allowing investors to maximize layout improvements without the need for full architectural redesign and approvals.
The private yard is filled with diverse wildlife, plants, and flowers, backing up to gorgeous woodlands with no neighbors behind. There's also plenty of outdoor space for gardening, activities, or even adding a deck or patio—the possibilities are endless.
There is a private driveway off Brackenville Road that serves only three homes, offering exclusivity and privacy. The area is home to wonderful neighbors, creating a welcoming and close-knit community.
