About This Home

As of July 2023

Lovely setting in the Burningtown community! Here, you can escape it all and enjoy the tranquil atmosphere. This private, unrestricted, 4.26-acre tract is tucked away and offers a 3 bed, 3 bath home, and a detached garage/workshop. Home has a double carport and a large front porch to sit and enjoy the views. With some tree clearing, you would have excellent mountain views. Inside is a great kitchen and formal dining room. The living room is spacious, with large windows overlooking the front yard. 3 beds and 2 baths on the main floor. Downstairs is an unfinished basement with another full bath. There's plenty of storage found on the lower level, which has the potential to be a great workshop area. Outside is an oversized workshop/detached garage that would be an excellent area for woodworking or mechanics. With over 4 acres, you have plenty of privacy here but little yard maintenance. A unique gem to see! Virtual tour and 3d walkthrough available!
