Some homes need a weekend of work before they feel like yours. This one only needs your furniture. Every inch of this 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath home has been renovated. Morning coffee happens in a brand-new kitchen with new appliances. Fresh floors and paint run throughout, and both bathrooms have been fully updated. The work goes past the cosmetic, too: a new metal roof and a new water heater mean the big-ticket items are already taken care of. Then step outside. The home sits on just under an acre, which leaves room for a garden, a fire pit, or simply some space between you and the neighbors. The detached two-car metal building is the bonus that changes everything. Use it as a workshop, as covered parking for the truck and the boat, as storage for the toys, or for the project you've been waiting years to start. It's country living with the work already done, just minutes from everything Wilson has to offer.
