About This Home

Tucked away on a scenic .67-acre lot, this inviting 3-bedroom, 2-full-bath rural ranch home offers the kind of peaceful setting where memories are made. Imagine summer evenings spent on the large covered rear porch, watching lightning bugs dance across the backyard while kids and pets play safely inside the fenced yard. Inside, the home combines warmth and comfort with important modern updates including updated HVAC, replacement windows, 200-amp electric service, sump pump, and water heater. The cozy living room, complete with an electric fireplace, creates the perfect gathering space for movie nights, holidays, or simply relaxing after a long day. The spacious eat-in kitchen is ready for everything from busy weekday breakfasts to weekend family dinners. The primary suite offers a private retreat with an updated bathroom featuring a walk-in shower and double vanity. Downstairs, the full basement provides endless potential — ready to be finished into additional living space, a rec room, home gym, or whatever fits your family’s needs. If you’ve been searching for a home that offers peaceful country living with room to breathe, modern conveniences, and a place to truly slow down and enjoy life’s simple moments — this could be the one. Please note professional photos will be 5/29 and showings begin 6/1.
