Description

Welcome to your creek-side escape-where comfort meets the kind of natural beauty you can actually hear. This 2-bedroom, 2-bath home with a versatile loft sits on a full acre with rare, coveted frontage along the gorgeous (and wonderfully noisy) Kells Creek. The sound of rushing water is your constant soundtrack, and the setting feels so private and quiet you'd swear you were hours off the grid-yet downtown is just three minutes away.

This 2-bedroom, 2-bath home with a versatile loft sits on a full acre with rare, coveted frontage along the gorgeous (and wonderfully noisy) Kells Creek. The sound of rushing water is your constant soundtrack, and the setting feels so private and quiet you'd swear you were hours off the grid-yet downtown is just three minutes away. Inside, the home blends warm, inviting character with an easy, open flow. The main living area is bright, welcoming and cozy with a wood burning fireplace as the centerpiece. Cook, entertain, or just live your best life in a kitchen that feels both stylish and practical. A great size bedroom on each floor for space and privacy and each bathroom has a clean, updated vibe. Upstairs, the loft adds that extra bit of flexibility everyone wants. Need a creative workspace? A cozy reading den? An extra sleeping zone for guests who won't want to leave? The loft steps up, literally and figuratively. But the real magic is outside. The land invites you to wander, relax, and just breathe. Morning coffee on the front porch or family barbecques on the deck under the stars with the creek rumbling nearby. Space to garden, play, or do absolutely nothing at all. If you want a full time home that feels like a retreat but functions like a modern, in-town property or an amazing investment opportunity, this is the unicorn. Peaceful, cool, and unexpectedly close to everything-this is one of those places that just feels right.
