I am a unique 2 bedroom / 1 bath home with a fenced in yard and a 2 car detached garage in Wood River!
Once you venture inside you will be invited into my nice enclosed porch that allows you to go into my kitchen area or to my unfinished basement. If you go to my roomy kitchen you will see plenty of space to store your cooking needs and to prepare your food. Now that you have prepared food you can take it to the dining room where you can sit comfortably and enjoy a meal. Take the time to let your body relax in my living room that has lots of space for relaxation or entertainment. After a long day of working hard, why not get some rest in 1 of 2 of my bedrooms or wash the dirt and sweat away in my bathroom to feel refreshed and full of energy. Also I will keep 2 of your cars clean and dry from the weather outside with my 2 car detached garage!
