About This Home

As of October 2025

In-town acreage alert! Tucked away in a quiet SE side neighborhood, this rare find offers over 2 wooded acres with space, updates, and flexibility. Step inside to refinished hardwood floors and a warm living room with woodburning fireplace and built-ins. The updated kitchen features quartz counters, glass tile backsplash, soft-close cabinets, island seating, and stainless steel appliances. The large dining area opens to a screened-in porch overlooking your private wooded backyard oasis. The spacious primary bedroom offers double closets, and the original second bedroom on the main level has been converted into a convenient laundry and pantry space (with another full laundry area still downstairs, perfect for busy households or multigenerational living). Walkout lower level features a large rec/family room with second fireplace, 3 additional bedrooms, updated 3/4 bath, utility sink, and loads of storage. Outside you’ll find a brand new pergola, hot tub, spacious patio, mature trees, and room to roam. New roof in 2020, recently connected to city sewer, and all appliances—including both washer/dryer sets—stay. Smart thermostat and thoughtful touches throughout. Whether you're looking for a peaceful retreat or space to spread out close to town, this one’s got it all!
