Old home is in need of repair everywhere and questionable whether to fix up or tear down. Will need work from the Roof to the foundation and lots of junk all over. Has been a rental for a number of years, used and abused. "So why consider this property?" If you have more time than money and some skills this might be a golden opportunity. Very Low priced! Nice, level 1 acre site. Wood burning fireplace with insert. Electrical breaker panel appears modern. Lots of room and good soils for gardening. Bountiful apple crop on the orchard trees. Plenty of parking for toys and RVs. Worst house in a neighborhood of newer homes. Home next door was built in 2023. Walking distance to Oakville’s restaurants, craft stores and lounge. 10 minutes to gaming and entertainment at the popular Lucky Eagle Casino. A short drive for hiking, horseback and ATV trails in the nearby 100,000 acre state owned Capitol Forest. Just a few minutes from a public boat launch onto the fish filled Chehalis River. 2 minute walk to Oakvilles little league baseball fields, community park, and community hall. Convenient location to HWY 12, just 15 minutes to access to I-5 at exit 88 or about an hour to recreation and clam digging at ocean beaches. At only $174,900 this is less expensive than many vacant lots with all utilities. Bring your enthusiasm, labor and vision and create your home or investment. Property is being sold “as is” so make sure you look it over carefully.
