Enjoy frequent visits from deer and other wildlife. Relax on the lovely deck shaded by a gazebo while looking onto a large section of fenced yard. Or you can choose relaxing in the large family room/sunroom with its own heat and air conditioning for year round use. The versatile floor plan offers 3-5 bedrooms, 3 full baths and includes a separate living area
addition that was originally designed as an in-law suite. This space features a bedroom, full bath,
living room, sitting area, private entrance, and ramp access. There is a thermostat controlled
propane stove for heat and a wall unit a/c for cooling. The other room in this area was a
kitchenette which was removed, as the addition area was formally used for pet grooming, but
could be restored. This section is ideal for multi-generational living, guests, hobbies, or a home
business. The main home features a kitchen with granite countertops and center island, a welcoming living
room with Life Proof flooring, a brick wood-burning fireplace and huge closet. Also, a first-floor
bedroom with multiple closets and built-in drawers. An enclosed front porch and heated sunroom
provide additional living and entertaining spаce. Outside, you'll find a detached 2-car garage, workshop with two workbenches, chicken coop,
fenced yard area, and a large driveway with plenty of parking. The above-ground pool will need
a new liner, the pool heater is not operational and the pool deck needs some work. Additional features include central air in the original home, reverse osmosis system, UV light, wood burning stove, and multiple heating sources. Chickens may stay with the property if desired. One
of the 2nd floor bedrooms is a walk-through. One year Cinch Home Warranty included for peace of mind. If you've been looking for acreage, privacy, wildlife, and a home with endless possibilities, this property deserves a closer look !
