The layout provides room to live, hunt, recreate and maintain equipment on one property. A paved driveway leads into the property and to the 2,129?? square-foot ranch-style home. The residence includes three bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, with a functional single-level layout and generous living space. An open-concept kitchen and dining area creates a central gathering space within the home and connects naturally to the living room. The living room is highlighted by a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace that serves as a focal point while adding to the country character of the home. Beyond the residence, the acreage is a significant part of what this property offers. The 40?? acres are heavily wooded with a mixture of hardwoods and pine, creating diversity throughout the property. Areas of thicker cover are mixed among the timber, providing transition and staging areas for wildlife. Deer sign has been observed throughout the property, and the existing habitat provides a solid starting point for someone looking to continue developing the acreage for hunting and wildlife management. An established food plot area gives the property a dedicated hunting location, while a partial trail system provides access through portions of the acreage and leads toward the plot. The existing setup can be used as it currently sits or expanded over time depending on the goals of the next owner. With the home and primary improvements concentrated together, much of the remaining acreage stays wooded and available for hunting, walking, habitat work and other recreational use. The property also includes a substantial multi-stall garage that adds considerable utility beyond typical residential storage. The garage features a built-in vehicle lift along with dedicated office
