Grangeville Idaho ID Real Estate

Have you been waiting for just the right home in Grangeville Idaho, one that is in good condition and in the right neighborhood?  You may have just found it.

This wonderful property is on a huge 100x135' lot at the corner of Lincoln and South Idaho Street.  Just today, I drove by to put flyers in the info tube and found the trim was painted and shutters on.  This photo will be updated soon, to reflect the brand new exterior paint upgrade.  Wow, what a difference. Imaging the home above (which is freshly painted) with lovely burgundy shutters and cream trim.  

Price:  $129,900
Size:  3Bed/1.5Ba    1422 Sq. Ft.   
Heat:  Electric Forced Air Heat.  Chimney is not in use but could provide alt. heat source such as wood stove.

The home, built in 1953,  has lots of tongue and groove pine wood, a newer roof, new windows all the way around (2007).  A detached garage provides room for storage and a nice covered carport in the back offers a place to sit and enjoy the beautiful mountain views to the south.  A nice concrete pad in the backyard is currently used for a basketball court, but could become the site for a future shop.

This Grangeville Home located on the north side of town is now listed at a very competitive price.  The home would make an EXCELLENT STARTER HOME or what you can consider a Grangeville Fixer Upper.  This home has the potential for increasing your equity.  Especially in this current economy, where your money doesn't earn much in the bank savings accounts or even certificates of deposit for that matter.   Putting a bit of elbow grease into a fixer upper can mean a nice sum for you when you go to sell this home in a few years.  

This home priced under $70,000 has so much potential!

In addition to a BRAND NEW ROOF IN OCTOBER 2008, a newer propane gas stove for heating the home, as well as a new hot water heater that was installed in the past year are upgrades that can bring you instant equity.   The exterior of the home could use some TLC, where the siding is a bit worn, but this is a project that a handi-man can manage easily.  A new coat of whitewash on the home gives the siding a nice neat appearance, offering the flexibility to focus on interior upgrades this winter.  You can see in the photos, the interior is in good condition. 

For home built in the 1930's, this home is in better shape than you might think.  One of the items a new buyer will need to address in the next few years is the roof.   The roof life has about 3 to 5 years according to an appraiser in 2007.

The seller has maintained the landscaping and planted many strawberries, raspberries, 2 plum trees, 2 varieties of cherries, rhubarb and has a tasty pear tree in the front that is currently loaded with the bounty of fall.    There is a small shed/workshop in the back with a cold storage room that seller says maintains a nice cool temperature year round. 

Seller will take  kitchen appliances and washer and dryer, including refrigerator, microwave, range/stove and roll around dishwasher.  Buyer can negotiate for the air conditioner on the platform outside the family room window.  I was in the house during the heat of the summer, and the air conditioner maintained the home at nice cool temps.

If you've researched the availability of rentals in the Grangeville area,  you'll find that they are few and far between.  Investors or business people who are handy and want to get a Return On Investment would make a smart purchase with this home.  Don't let this opportunity get away from you.  I have a good feeling that while the general housing market is slow and slowing down fast, this is a property that will sell within a reasonably short period of time.
