You've been saying for years how you'd love to have a dream garage workshop with a vehicle lift. Quit saying it and come get it already! This is a killer home at a sweetheart of a deal price with a nearly 2,200sqft garage (fits more than 6 cars),has an ALM 7001A lift in a tall bay with an RV garage door and steel i-beam engine hoist. This is a one-owner home with nearly 2,000sqft of living space, in fact it's the builder's own home that he built for himself and has had nominal updating over the years since then. Very nice addition at rear of the home created as an office (or 4th BR) that connects to the garage - this would make a very useful in-home business office arrangement. Main level features small foyer, living room with corner gas fireplace and kitchen. Upstairs offers 3 bedrooms and a full bath with a jacuzzi tub. One upstairs bedroom has access to an enormous "skydeck" above the addition. Lower level provides for a nicely sized rec room, laundry room and full bath. Access to the concrete crawlspace that you don't really have to crawl inside because it's about 4' tall. The massive heated and insulated garage has a 2-car overhead door and a single 10'+ RV garage door. The garage is irregular shaped, but overall size is 62x27. HUGE! The 3/4 acre lot has a large open metal gazebo type structure on a stamped concrete patio with a bridge extending over the large koi pond loaded with lily pads. This property was formerly awarded "best lawn in Winnebago County" according to the family. As if there wasn't enough storage already, there's a small PVC garden shed in the backyard as well. As far as maintenance goes, there's a newer central air unit, updated furnace, vinyl windows, vinyl siding and portions of the roof are believed to have been replaced in the last few years. This is a one of a kind property that is priced aggressively to gain lots of interest, so come prepared and do your best!
