Read the full listing description
Come see this turnkey house at an affordable price! This beautifully well kept and updated 2 BR PLUS DEN home is a sweet, comfortable ranch in a lake community. The gleaming hardwood floors were just refinished, the interior is freshly painted, the windows are all newer, and there is room for your boat in addition to two cars. There are two beautiful stone patios and the yard is bounded by meticulously crafted stone walls and wrought iron railings, with several gates for easy access. The basement is partially finished with a ceramic tile floor and all the mechanicals have been maintained. Membership in the lake community is voluntary and very reasonable at $95/year, which gives you access to a beach on Lake Zoar, a boat launch and use of a pavilion (see the photos).
