About this home

ONLINE-ONLY REAL ESTATE AUCTION! Opportunity awaits at 611 S. Cowen Street in Garrett. This spacious 4-bedroom, 2-bath home offers approximately 1,855 sq. ft. of living space, including approximately 1,105 sq. ft. on the main level and 750 sq. ft. upstairs.

The full unfinished basement provides additional space for storage, utilities, or a workshop. Recent improvements include new vinyl siding and shingles in 2021, a new storage shed in 2021, the main-level primary bedroom, bathroom, and laundry room addition in 2022, and a new gas water heater in 2023. This property offers plenty of space and potential for a buyer looking to add their own personal touches while benefiting from several recent updates.
