About This Home
Timeless farmhouse charm meets modern sophistication on 1.55 acres! This 3,417 sq-ft home beautifully blends character and comfort, offering 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and two versatile bonus rooms on the upper level. Step onto the inviting wrap-around porch and into a home that’s been thoughtfully renewed while preserving its vintage appeal. Inside, you’ll find porcelain tile floors (2018) complementing original hardwoods, custom built-ins, and two cozy fireplaces that add warmth and charm. The spacious kitchen offers abundant storage, new stainless steel appliances (2023), and a stunning Calico Perez quartz island (2024) — perfect for gathering and entertaining. The primary suite features a luxurious tiled walk-in shower, dual-sink vanity, garden tub, and generous walk-in closets, while the secondary bathroom impresses with a fully updated tiled bath/shower combo and modern finishes. Major updates include new windows with a lifetime warranty (2018), sump pump in basement (2025), updated plumbing, electrical, and HVAC (2018), and a septic tank pumped in June 2025. Outside, enjoy the 10x12 she-shed — ideal for hobbies, kids play area, or extra storage — and the tranquility of country living just minutes from I-40, shopping, dining, and entertainment. A true revamped vintage beauty, this home seamlessly combines modern upgrades with timeless character — ready for you to move right in and fall in love.
