Our take on 5480 Rl Lewis Lane SE
Written by the Buddy Blake Team from the listing photos and MLS data. Not part of the MLS listing or the listing broker's description.
This single-family property sits on 2.88 acres in Bolivia, outside of any subdivision. The lot combines open clearings with wooded ground, giving it a setting that is more rural than most in town. The single-story layout offers two bedrooms and one bath across 1,156 square feet. Built in 1930, the property has the character of an older structure, and blinds or shades are included at the windows.
Heating and cooling come from an electric heat pump with central air. Water is supplied by both county water and a well, as listed in the utilities. Parking is on gravel, off the street and on site, with no garage, which leaves the rest of the acreage open and largely undeveloped.
