About This Home

As of July 2025

Tranquil Custom Ranch Retreat on .4 Acres Surrounded by Nature-Tucked away in a truly enchanting setting, this stunning custom-built ranch home offers the perfect blend of charm, modern comfort, and peaceful seclusion. Set on .4 acres and enveloped by mature trees, the property feels like a private nature preserve-where deer wander through the yard and birdsong greets you each morning. With no neighbors behind and a canopy of greenery all around, you'll enjoy a rare sense of serenity just minutes from town. From the moment you arrive, the inviting covered front porch welcomes you to slow down, relax, and soak in the quiet countryside atmosphere. Step inside to discover approximately 1,700 square feet of beautifully designed living space that's both functional and full of warmth. The heart of the home is a dramatic great room with soaring cathedral ceilings and a cozy fireplace-perfect for gatherings or quiet evenings by the fire. Natural light pours into the dedicated office, creating a bright and inspiring space for working from home. Nearby, a versatile front living room offers flexibility to serve as a formal dining room, play area, or reading nook-whatever suits your lifestyle best. The open-concept layout flows seamlessly, creating a welcoming environment for entertaining and everyday living. This thoughtfully crafted home features three spacious bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, and an oversized 2.5-car garage complete with a workshop area-ideal for DIY projects, storage, or creative pursuits. Out back, the large yard opens up to a peaceful vista with a covered patio that invites you to sit and stay a while, watching wildlife meander past as the sun sets. Offering a quiet country feel without sacrificing convenience, this exceptional property with an updated roof is just a short drive to town, shopping, dining, and schools. It's not just a home-it's a lifestyle, and one you won't want to miss.
