About This Home

Looking for a unique home close to town? This 2BD/2BA offers easy, paved access to the door and comfortable main-level living. The open floor plan features a spacious living, dining, and kitchen area with vaulted ceilings that make the space feel light and airy. Both bedrooms also have vaulted ceilings, giving them a roomy, relaxed vibe. Central heat and air keep things comfortable year-round, and the air handler was just replaced in June/July 2021. Step outside to enjoy a large wraparound deck—perfect for relaxing or entertaining—and a fenced side yard for pets or play. Other perks include a vapor barrier in the crawlspace, a brand-new shared well (dug last month), and low annual fees of just $150 for water and road maintenance. The seller currently has a VA loan that may be assumable with qualification. Whether you're starting out, scaling down, or just looking for a cozy weekend spot, this one checks the boxes!
