About This Home

COUNTRY LIVING AT IT'S BEST. This beautiful home sits on 5.76 acres with 2 shares of MVI to keep the property lush and green with a lot of space for a great garden. The property is fenced and cross fenced for livestock to roam. The stucco makes it low maintenance and adds to the curb appeal. There is a seasonal creek that runs through the property to the west. There are 2 bedrooms on the main level with a full bath and downstairs is a bedroom and a 3/4 bathroom. One of the great features of this home is the upstairs living room and large living area downstairs with a walk out basement. The 2 car garage is a big plus. The open floor plan makes this a must see. CALL for a showing today.
