This 3-bed, 3-bath bungalow on a 36.5x120 ft lot has a brand new metal roof that pops against the white vinyl siding. Inside, the main floor feels open with a kitchen that flows into dining and living areas, and there's a walkout to the deck from the dining room. The basement is fully finished with a rec room, a bar, and an extra bedroom, plus a second laundry hookup. A detached 1.5-car garage is heated and wired for a workshop, which is a huge bonus in this climate. You're minutes from downtown Fort Frances and the Minnesota border, with schools and grocery stores nearby. At $279,900, it's priced just under the recent sale of a similar home nearby, so it's fair. Yard is fully fenced, great for pets or kids. Central air and vacuum are already in. It's got good bones and a solid layout, though some finishes show wear. If you need space for vehicles or toys, this one's got it.
