The shop is the first thing worth understanding about this place. A 30 by 40 foot insulated building with electricity, overhead doors, and a compressor hookup sitting inside city limits on 1.14 acres. That is 1,200 square feet of covered workspace — bigger than the house — and it is already wired and ready. If you do any kind of fabrication, mechanical work, woodworking, or just need serious storage, this is the kind of setup that usually requires buying land well outside town to find.
The house itself is a 1950 three-bedroom, one-bath at 1,156 square feet. Straightforward, modest, solid for its age. One bath is one bath, and at 1,156 square feet three bedrooms means the rooms are not large. The listing gives no information on when systems were updated, so you would want to look at the HVAC, electrical, and plumbing carefully before closing. The washer and dryer stay, which is a small thing, but it tells you the sellers are not stripping the place.
The whole property is fully enclosed by a privacy fence, which matters more than it sounds when you have 1.14 acres inside city limits. You can let dogs run, keep equipment out of sight, work in the shop without the street watching. That combination of fenced land and a serious shop in a residential area is not something that comes up regularly.
At $145,000, this is sitting about 24 percent below the zip code median. The price per square foot is on the house alone, which is the wrong way to measure a property where half the value is in the land and the outbuilding. What you are actually buying is a livable three-bedroom with a shop that a tradesperson, hobbyist, or small business owner could put to work immediately, all on over an acre with a fence around it.
The condition questions are real and deserve honest investigation. But the footprint here, the land, the shop, the fence, at this price in Muskogee, is a hard combination to replicate.
