Description

Kayak in your own pond! Pulling up to this property will immediately have you dreaming of cookouts, fishing, crawdad hunting, and tons of family fun. Water is spring fed and so clear you can count the rocks on the bottom. Yard is large and level with plenty of room for a garden. There's also a screened porch on the back of the house with windows that open/close. Sit in the swing and read or use the extra large sunroom to entertain large groups of friends/family. On the other side of the house you...Kayak in your own pond! Pulling up to this property will immediately have you dreaming of cookouts, fishing, crawdad hunting, and tons of family fun. Water is spring fed and so clear you can count the rocks on the bottom. Yard is large and level with plenty of room for a garden. There's also a screened porch on the back of the house with windows that open/close. Sit in the swing and read or use the extra large sunroom to entertain large groups of friends/family. On the other side of the house you can fish or wade in Buffalo Creek (over 300 ft of creek frontage). Once inside you will find hardwood floors, two fireplaces, built-in bookshelves, a window seat, and tons of storage space. There's a master on the main floor and another on the second floor. Three bedrooms in the house have windows that open to allow the soothing sound of the creek to lull you to sleep. Save money with the geo-thermal heat/air unit. There is also a room on the first floor to design as you wish--could be office, garage, playroom, another bedroom, your choice of how to finish it. Rooms are large and the home is freshly painted. All it lacks is a family to call it HOME.
