About This Home
As of December 2023Really cool rustic log home in Wilson schools. This home and location epitomizes country privacy. The best part is that it is still really close to everything! All one floor living with this ranch home. You'll notice the wraparound deck in the front so there's plenty of space to relax and enjoy the surroundings. As you enter the home you will really appreciate the open feel. Huge living room with cathedral ceiling that is open to the kitchen. Very spacious kitchen with plenty of cabinetry plus a dishwasher and built in microwave. Plenty of room to add a large island if you'd like. Did I mention tons of natural light? The kitchen is open to the dining room with a vaulted ceiling and this leads out to the rear and side of the home. There is a nice woodstove in the living room and I am sure this will do a great job to supplement the furnace. Lots of maintenance free laminate flooring throughout. There are two bedrooms and two full baths. The owner's bedroom is large and bright with ample closet space and LVP flooring. The hall bath was recently redone and includes a double vanity, 5' shower, and new LVP flooring. The 2nd bedroom has it's own bathroom with clawfoot tub. Large full basement with Bilco door. Tons of space for storage. Outside there are two storage sheds and one of them is virtually new. Really nice lot and the home sits back off the road. Lots of mature landscaping and trees and the lot does go a bit behind the house. This one just needs your personal touch! 1-yr Warranty included with acceptable offer.
