PRICE REDUCTION! $129,000 to $119,000!
OWN CHEAPER than the average local RENTS!! **FIXER UPPER SPECIAL** on super PEACEFUL, QUIET, COUNTRY 1/4 ACRE CORNER in small rural town with detached garage, carport, chicken coop, fenced yard and garden area. Watch the wild turkeys meander through your front yard as you bask in the peace of small town living from your serene front porch, just 1/2-hour northeast of Falcon in the small rural town of Ramah. Likely you will see and hear more wildlife than people or cars. A great, affordable place to recover from city living, raise kids and have a bit of space and freedom. Easy 1/2-hour drive to the northeast corner of Colorado Springs on all paved roads and highway 24. (do not go by the craigslist map)
House needs work: needs some flooring replaced, some underside insulation replaced, cleaning (previous occupant had cats), deck roofing repair, (home roof was replaced in 2022) needs some siding repairs, needs new front door and one panel in guest bath ceiling replaced etc.
The home is a 1998 16' x 76' singlewide manufactured home (appoximately1200 sq. ft.) on its own 1/4-acre lot across from the town open space in Ramah. Living here is like taking a step back in time. With a population of less than a couple hundred people, kids, humans and animals exist peacefully without traffic and noise concerns. The school bus comes right through town to pick up kids to take to the local school in Simla. There is a new dollar store in Simla 5 miles east and a small grocery store in Calhan 9 miles west, otherwise Ramah is surrounded by the Big Sandy riverbed, vast grasslands and wildlife that manage to wander into town.
There are 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, front covered deck, an enclosed rear porch, a walk-in pantry, large bathtub in master, walk in closet in master and also in one of the bedrooms, forced air heat and owned propane tank, all appliances stay (fridge, stove, dishwasher, washer and dryer and swamp cooler) (all need to be cleaned), onions already growing in previous garden, previous strawberry planter box out front. The corner has paved roads on 2 sides and dirt alley in back bordered by ranchland and old barn, so there is a neighbor only on one side. Location has Ramah town utilities: water and sewer and is serviced by Mountain View Electric and owned propane tank so new buyer can choose from many local propane delivery providers. Price includes lot and home.
Sold strictly AS IS, no seller repairs at this greatly discounted price. (the current El Paso County Assessor's value of the location is $288,000!)
Regarding financing:
I notice that LightStream (lighstream.com) is offering an unsecured $100,000 loan for 12 yrs starting as low as $1143/mo.
One might also try Sofi.com and/or Upgrade.com for other unsecured loans.
Showing and giving address out only to qualified buyers please. May consider trades for real property. Friendly seller happy to answer any questions, contact through craigslist email.
