About This Home

Private Multi-Home Retreat on 1.95 Acres – Guest House, Workshop, Solar, and More

Tucked away at the end of a serene, dead-end street, this unique property offers space, privacy, and incredible potential on 1.95 wooded acres with a creek. The main home features 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, multiple living and dining areas, and a bright sunroom that brings the outdoors in. Rich wood details throughout add rustic warmth and charm.

A large, detached 4-car garage provides ample parking and storage. The home is equipped with solar panels and a newer HVAC system, offering long-term energy efficiency. A gun safe is included with the home, adding peace of mind.

While several projects throughout the home remain unfinished, this is a fantastic opportunity for buyers ready to customize and add value.

The guest house provides flexible living options, with potential for 4 bedrooms and 2 living areas—ideal for guests, rental income, or extended family. It also includes a built-in safe room/panic room for added security. The guest house has a working fireplace with a functional blower. Underneath, a large workshop/garage offers excellent space for projects, storage, or a home-based business.

Enjoy a private driveway, lush wooded surroundings, and the tranquility of creek-side living—all just minutes from town.
