The home features four bedrooms with a flexible layout, including two distinct second-floor areas, each with two bedrooms and a bath, ideal for multi-generational living, guests, or home offices. The first floor has been refreshed with new flooring, fresh paint, and new lighting throughout, along with a revitalized kitchen featuring new appliances, countertops, hardware, and flooring. The second floor also includes new flooring, paint, and updated lighting. Major updates include a brand-new furnace, one-year-old roof, newer windows, an artesian well, and public sewer, with public water available at the street. Outdoors, enjoy your own dock for fishing, kayaking, or paddleboarding, explore the wooded acreage, or relax on multiple covered porches, including a peaceful screened porch. The greenhouse is perfect for starting plants or year-round tinkering, and the walkout basement provides excellent workshop space and abundant storage.
