Paperwork attached: for septic and local shopping and entertainment. This home and it's 24 acres (near Lake Wallenpaupack) is adjacent to 600 acres of hunting ground and a hunting lodge (do you need to join the hunting lodge to hunt?, the owner hunts his own ground and there is no state game land ...nearby) The land is slopped but for the price is well worth it. As you will see in the pictures the drywall was removed because of a mold issue that was addressed (tested and no mold) . The home has a new septic, well and water system (paperwork is attached to listing), new electric, new roof and new front door and windows. Currently the home is heated with a wood burning fireplace (so financing would have to be cash or a 203K loan) but if you're looking to rehab separate baseboards with its own thermostat in each room is how most homeowners heat their home. The Newer Electrical heat pumps are not as expensive as you think. You could also run duct work since all the drywall is down. 2 acres are the requirements of the township for each home. FYI the land is sloped and not flat but great for hunting, fishing, ATV's and the best way to rehab the home is to leave in its current location and add up and out. The home is structurally sound and needs some love and a heating system and has a dry basement. The house is heated with a wood burning FP which is why you need a 203K loan, hard money. The owners have all the kitchen cabinets and newer appliances so it's just a matter of some elbow grease. The cost of a heating system is a couple thousand, but the main cost is the duct work which again easy install no drywall in the way. The surrounding area have homes being sold for $200 to $400K on next to no land. This is a great opportunity. ..you will find it difficult to find an existing structure with this much land. A ton of potential. This price is based on the land. If you bought land near Lake Wallenpaupack you would pay $700K easy. Hard to compare this home to surrounding homes with no land. Having this existing home helps with financing. Handy? if not there are local builders to complete this home Why no drywall? The roof was removed and there was ice that built up which eventually melted, and the water ran down in the drywall, so the homeowner had the home tested for mold and removed all the drywall. FYI, 2 acre lots are required by the township (land is behind the home and owner uses the land all the way to the 3rd stream) The ground has not been perked or subdivided. This ground is the perfect playground for any sporting activity that you fancy. Owner is not looking to sell off acres he just wants to sell "as is" and the buyer can do whatever he wants after settlement (do your research prior to making an offer, your due diligence and please drive by before making an appointment ,even map it prior to appointment... owner is okay if you want to walk the grounds as long as he is given notice) This is a great price for 24.05 acres that adjoins 600 acres and a hunting lodge. It's a short ride to Promise land lake and Lake Wallenpaupack that has boat slips for rent. There is new construction nearby at $399 on a half an acre. This land at this price is a good purchase. So many possibilities for this home in its current location and what a great location it is. Short ride 35 miles to big boulder for the WMMR cardboard classics. The Golf Course down the street should be maintained and running in the spring of 2025 (was listed $2M but instead of a sale its being leased by the homeowners.) The neighboring homes are higher in price...which makes the location more desirable. Make an offer based on the information provided and let's make this work. if not there are local builders. This info is the buyer's due diligence. Great opportunity!
