About This Home

As of September 2025

Escape to this 2 bedroom, 1 bath country cabin retreat, perfectly set on 14.77 acres of rolling open fields that gracefully transition into private, wooded acreage. It's the best of both worlds from expansive views and wide-open skies in the front, serene forest seclusion in the back. Whether you're kayaking on your own pond, exploring the woods, watching wildlife, or simply soaking in the peaceful scenery under the screened pavilion, you may never feel the need to leave. Inside, the home offers an inviting, mostly open main living space that's perfect for gathering, with windows that flood the rooms with natural light and bring the outdoors in. A well-planned laundry/mudroom includes a fold-down table, adding smart functionality without taking up valuable space.
