Rare opportunity to purchase an affordable acreage just on the outskirts of Pender!!! Tucked behind mature hardwood and fruit trees (and accessed just off a paved road), you'll love the serenity that this approximate 1 acre acreage provides. The expansive 1,414 SF ranch home features 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and an oversized 2 car garage that'll protect both your cars and your hobby shop.

Outside, the expansive grounds feature multiple outbuildings, potential pasture/field space for animals, and abundant fruit trees including multiple apple and pear varieties for the cook of the home to incorporate into their secret recipes. With affordable acreages in short supply, call or text to schedule your showing today!!
