## Description

### Agent Description
Life feels a little more relaxed near Flint Lake, and this inviting ranch offers the perfect opportunity to make it your own. With 3+ bedrooms, 1 bath, and over 1,400 square feet of living space, there's room to settle in comfortably while adding your personal touch. The living room is filled with natural light thanks to an abundance of windows, creating a bright and welcoming space to gather. The home has already seen a number of important updates, including a newer roof, windows, plumbing, electrical with a 100 amp service panel, furnace, HVAC ductwork, insulation, and T1-11 siding--giving you a strong foundation to build on. The kitchen features updated cabinetry and laminate countertops, and all appliances, along with the washer and dryer, are included for added convenience. Outside, you'll find two storage sheds and plenty of space to add a future garage if desired. Whether you're looking for a year-round residence, a weekend retreat, or an investment opportunity, this property offers flexibility and potential. With just a little TLC, this could easily shine as a charming lake cottage or rental near the water. A solid start, in a location that's always in demand.
