About This Home
Let’s go to the country and discover your happy just beyond the edge of Spencer. This just-under-two-acre acreage feels like its own little world. It’s wrapped in mature shade trees, filled with sunlight, and surrounded by wide-open space. The home welcomes you with the instant comfort of an enclosed front porch, the kind of spot where morning coffee tastes better and the seasons can be enjoyed in quiet peace. Inside, thoughtful updates continue with a crisp, refreshed kitchen and half bath that adds modern convenience. The upper level features three generous bedrooms and a full bath, giving everyone comfortable space to settle in. Out back, a generous wooden deck opens up a whole new world of outdoor living. It offers a place to unwind, entertain, or simply breathe in the calm. The property is set up for hobby living with a sturdy two-stall detached garage, along with a second single-stall garage connected to a chicken coop, ready for animals, gardening, or any project you’ve been hoping to start. An unfinished basement provides future potential for family room and an additional bedroom. This is acreage living that doesn’t ask you to stretch. It simply invites you to begin.
