The kitchen offers a breakfast bar, dining area, and opens to a great room with vaulted ceiling and a cozy gas log fireplace, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Just off the foyer is a versatile space ideal for a formal dining room or home office. The home features three bedrooms and two full baths, along with a convenient laundry/mudroom as you enter from the 2.5 car garage. The unfinished basement provides great potential for additional living space and is already roughed in for a future bath. A Generac backup generator offers peace of mind during power outages, and the roof is less than four years new. The home has been pre-inspected and is being sold as reported, plus includes a 14 month home warranty. Enjoy the charm of small town living in Sherman with a community park and amphitheater, all while being just minutes from The Rail Golf Course, the interstate, and Springfield.
