Nestled at the end of a long private drive & hidden beneath a canopy of mature trees, this contemporary fixer offers a rare blend of privacy & opportunity on nearly half an acre in the Powellhurst-Gilbert neighborhood. If you've ever dreamed of creating your own wooded retreat, this is your chance to bring that vision to life.

Upstairs, an unfinished vaulted primary suite awaits your finishing touches and features a slider to a private deck nestled among the trees. An additional bedroom, bonus room, open loft area & half bath prepped for a future shower addition create a palette for customization. Semi-finished basement offers workshop & generous storage.
