Try finding this combination anywhere else in Frankenmuth! An indoor pool. A 40x60 pole barn. 1.4 acres. And a solid ranch sitting at the corner of Dehmel and Curtis with views of The Fortress and even a distant glimpse of downtown. This is the kind of property that immediately gets your attention because it simply doesn't fit the mold of a typical city lot. Let's start with the extras -- there's the heated 50x30 indoor pool building, complete with its own bathroom, creating a setup you're just not going to find every day. The 40x60 pole barn features a concrete floor and 12' overhead door, giving you serious room for toys, hobbies, storage or a workshop. Inside, the nearly 1,500-square-foot ranch has great bones and plenty of potential. The spacious living room is centered around a full brick-surround, wood-burning fireplace and a large picture window, while the kitchen offers loads of cabinetry, plenty of workspace and room to move. Three bedrooms round out the main floor and give you a home that's ready for your updates and your vision. The house can be personalized and the location can't be duplicated. And the pool and pole barn? Good luck finding those again. This one is different, and that's exactly what makes it special.
