About This Home

As of September 2025

Welcome to country living at its finest! This charming home sits on a sprawling 2.38-acre lot, offering the perfect blend of comfort and functionality. The four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath residence features a beautiful main floor master with wood cathedral ceilings, creating a cozy and warm sanctuary. Recent upgrades include a new septic system (2020), air conditioner (2020), furnace (2021), and a backup generator (2021). The roof and chimney cap were replaced in 2022, and energy-efficient solar panels help keep utility costs in check. The property's standout feature is its impressive 40' x 60' pole barn, complete with a heated office, workshop, and an attached two-car garage with concrete floors. A second 24' x 40' pole barn provides additional storage space for all your toys and tools. This well-maintained home combines modern amenities with rural charm, making it perfect for those seeking space, sustainability, and serenity.
