This single floor home on 2 beautiful acres in Montgomery is a unique find! Close to wonderful schools, it was built in 1955 with a significant addition in 1988. Write your chapter in this home's history book. The charms of 156 Orchard Road include hardwood floors in the eating area of the kitchen, the hall, and bedrooms of the 1955 section that have never been sanded. Refinishing should restore them to their original beauty. A covered porch/deck provides shade for comfortable summertime enjoyment. The main living area has an in-law suite complete with a private entrance. Other attributes include an attached garage at basement level as well as two detached sheds/ garages complete with electrical power and a heated full basement. The septic system was replaced in 2001. The home is being sold "as is", and with some TLC you can make this diamond in the rough sparkle!
