Enjoy peaceful mornings on the screened-in porch, a perfect spot to relax and take in the quiet surroundings. A brand-new front deck adds a welcoming touch and strong curb appeal as you arrive home.

The property also features an attached 2-car garage, providing plenty of room for parking, storage, or a workshop setup. The yard has been well cared for, with trees trimmed in spring 2025 to keep the grounds open, safe, and easy to maintain.

According to local history, the property is said to have originally been deeded to a Civil War Veteran as partial compensation for his service, adding a unique historical touch to an already special home. With the perfect blend of close to town and the quiet country setting. This property has it all!
