About This Home
As of December 2019Imagine waking up to the crisp fall air as you relish the sights, sounds, and even smells of fall from under your pergola on the oversized rear deck overlooking 3.99 acres of country bliss. Mowed trails on the back half of the property weave and turn eventually leading you to a private hunting stand and/or fort. The raised garden beds and chicken coop make it easy to grow/raise some of your own foods. Inside, the spectacular 2 story foyer radiates with light and welcomes guests happily. The open concept main living area offers a huge kitchen with tons of cabinet storage space and butcher block top island for food prep and/or seating. The adjoining dining space provides access to the rear deck and the second living space makes for a perfect seating or additional tv room. The main floor master suite is the perfect size and comes complete with a walk-in closet, dual vanities, and tiled shower surround. Upstairs is space for a computer desk on the landing between the two massive bedrooms.
