Price Reduced|Own a Piece of Maple Valley History~Vintage Cabin

Price Reduced|Own a Piece of Maple Valley History~Vintage Cabin

Time stands still at the water’s edge of this cabin on Lake Wilderness in Maple Valley. Tucked beneath towering fir & cedars, this cozy retreat, originally built in 1948 , was used over the years as a vacation retreat. It is a rustic reminder of simpler times when the Resort at Lake Wilderness was in full swing and busy Seattlites visited the area to “get away” from the bustle of the city.  The city of Maple Valley website offers a historical view of the resort: “An expanded Gaffney’s Grove resort opened in 1939, capable of accommodating 9,000 visitors daily. This premier lake resort featured baseball fields, tennis courts, dance pavilions, a skating rink, and two swimming beaches with slides, trapezes, and diving towers.”  Currently the structure has no hot water or heat source other than the wood-cookstove, but the tongue-n-groove paneling, ceiling and vintage linoleum create a warm atmosphere from which to enjoy views of the lake. Both front and back yards are fairly level with the front yard sloping slightly toward the lake and the dock. The property is served by an individual on-site well and septic. There is water and sewer in the street for future hook-up or building down the road. This one

Thinking about Buying a “Fixer”?

Thinking about Buying a “Fixer”?

Years ago the term “fixer-upper” in an ad would flood my office with phone calls. They just weren’t that abundant in the greater Maple Valley area and buyers knew with certainty if they could just get one under their belt (so to speak), the return would be more than worth their effort. Fast forward many years and fixers (also commonly referred to as homes requiring TLC) have become much easier to find. If you’re thinking about buying a home in need of repairs, this article from House Logic has some good points for you to consider. You can also search available properties here or email me to let me do the legwork for you! How to Assess the Real Cost of a Fixer-Upper House When you buy a fixer-upper house, you can save a ton of money, or get yourself in a financial fix.
