About This Home
As of August 2025Nestled on a flat and open 3.02-acre lot — with two separate parcels — this 3-bedroom, 3-bath home offers 2,264 square feet of inviting living space. Originally built in 1900, this property has been thoughtfully updated over the years, including some newer windows, a metal roof, and a radon mitigation system. The heart of the home is truly stunning — a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace is situated between the kitchen, dining, and sitting areas, creating a cozy gathering space for family and friends. Upstairs, you’ll find a spacious primary suite complete with its own full bath, along with a bonus room perfect for an office, hobby space, or playroom. The lower level is partially finished and full of potential, already featuring a full kitchen and full bathroom — ideal for guests, entertaining, or future expansion. Outside, the detached garage, mature trees, and wide-open countryside views set the stage for quiet mornings, weekend projects, or simply soaking in the peaceful setting. Whether you're dreaming of a hobby farm, extra gardens, or just room to roam, this property offers flexibility and space to make it your own. Don't miss your chance to own a slice of country life, just waiting for your personal touch!
