This 4-bedroom, 2 full bath gem is nestled on a sprawling 19 acres of secluded woodland, offering a private sanctuary for nature and hunting enthusiasts. Just minutes from Rt 295. As you step inside, you'll be greeted by a spacious living room connected to a delightfully spacious kitchen and dining area, perfect for hosting family gatherings or quiet dinners. The first floor also features a full bath and a versatile room that can serve as a fourth bedroom or a home office, catering to your unique needs. On the second floor you'll find 3 bedrooms and another full bath. A short hall leads to 2 bedrooms with plenty of closet space and a nice den area, also with closet space. The master bedroom is a retreat in itself, boasting a walk-in closet that provides ample storage. The bright windows share a view of the front yard, back yard and neighboring field. The garage, attached by a breezeway is a large drive through garage with 2 large workbenches and a separate large space on the side that could be used for seeding vegetables and housing gardening tools. The garage also has a large second level that could easily be turned into a 2 bedroom in-law apartment or studio for any business. This home does need some more updating and TLC, leaving you the ability to add your own desired styles and designs, so to create your imagined dream space. The potential here is limitless. The real charm of this house lies in its surroundings. The front yard is adorned with wild roses. A river and creeks running through the property, you can enjoy canoeing, fishing and nature walks right in your own backyard. Did I mention raspberry patches? The land is teeming with wildlife, and the property is a stone's throw away from an organic farm serving fresh vegetables. Nearby there is an apple orchard, and berry farms offering pick-your-own strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and more.
