    What's special

    Rare find is this 4 bedroom 2 1/2 bath move in ready home setting on 1.3 acre property close to all the amenities that West Branch has to offer. Very quiet secluded area with plenty of wildlife that comes into the yard. The master bed/bath is on the main floor and has been set up with a handicap accessible bathroom. There is also a handicap ramp in the 2 car attached garage. The rear deck opens up to the fenced in rear yard where you can set out in the peace and quiet and enjoy your favorite beverage. This is on a dead end road with only a couple of neighbors past the property.
