Reduced to $80,000! New Milford CT home to renovate, enjoy and love!

Real Estate Agent with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices New England Properties Licensed in Connecticut

Wanted: JUST REDUCED TO $80,000! New Milford CT Buyer to renovate, enjoy and love! Come meet this home in New Milford, CT and make it yours!

They do say there is an owner for every house, and this poor house is desperately looking for its new owner! I just listed a house in New Milford, CT, and for the first time I can say this house is sad and desperately looking for a new owner. The house is sitting and (im)patiently waiting to be finished and possibly improved on. For instance, there is a new roof, the cedar siding on the house is also newer. The owner built a wonderful storage shed on the property, all that is missing is the siding to make it look great. The wiring has been upgraded and the homeowner was starting a few more projects before having to move out of town due to unforeseeable circumstances. Now this house is greatly in need of someone to make it shine, make it home and enjoy it well. You have access to "Emerald Lake", aka Green Pond when you live in this house.

The house is located at 5 Blueberry Lane, off of Hubble Mountain Road in New Milford, CT. You may get a bit confused if you use GPS or any mapping service to find the home, they all think it is located in Sherman, CT. In reality, it is New Milford, CT. Although your mail will be delivered to Sherman, CT you pay taxes to New Milford. A bit unique, there are a few areas of town like this.

The town field card shows the house as a 2 bedroom home. There is a sketch of a proposed 3 bedroom septic system, and the "deeps and perks" have been done for this. There is a central vac system, the laundry has been moved to the basement which will free more room in the bathroom, the kitchen has been started but you may want to look at new cabinetry, and the floors do need to be redone. The yard is level, and with some creative landscaping could be just wonderful. With that and some painting, this could be the opportunity you have been waiting for!

Ranch, bungalow or cottage, whatever you consider this home to be, it is looking for an owner who can finish the work and will love to live here! Make some memories, bring some friends to help with the work and enjoy your finished product!

To be considered by this (sad) home at 5 Blueberry Lane in New Milford, CT as the new owner, please call me at 203.460.1775, or Dee Johnson at 203.770.2181. We will happily make arrangements for you to meet the home and see if you are the one the house has been waiting for! The home has been reduced to $80,000 and is listed by Prudential Adams & Associates, REALTORS of New Milford, CT

The house has also wanted you all to know that this is a short sale, and we are working on this to make any transaction a smooth one for the buyer, the seller and the house! The lender has their price in mind, we have listed at that price, and are just waiting for the right person to come along and make this a wonderful home.

Great Price.  We are trying something new.  We posted your listing on our FaceBook Fan Page.  We never know what exposure can do.

Craig, thank you! The poor house is just so sad, what else could I do?

 

Hannah, Whoever buys it should be handy, and someday it will be very cute and happy again!

 

Hi Al & Peggy, you are too kind! We are certainly not complaining about more exposure. I thank you, and the poor house thanks you!

Liz, thank you! I hope we can get this sold quickly, the house is really crying out for some love and attention!

Hi Andrea ~ The buyer will really be able to add value here and with access to Green Pond it seems like it will be money or time well spent.
