About This Home

Set on nearly half an acre just outside of Port Byron, this thoughtfully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers a quiet setting and a long list of improvements that make everyday living feel easy. Over the past several years, the home has been carefully remodeled throughout. The kitchen was fully renovated in 2023, creating a bright and functional space for cooking and gathering. New flooring was installed throughout the home in 2022-2023, along with new interior and exterior doors. Both bathrooms have been updated, with the main level remodel completed in 2023 and the lower level finished in 2024. Additional improvements include a new laundry room (2024), updated trim and light fixtures throughout (2024), and a refaced fireplace (2024). Main level windows were replaced in 2021. The home offers three bedrooms, including a potential 4th bedroom in the finished lower level that is currently used as a music room, providing flexible space that could easily serve as a guest room, office, or hobby space. Outside, a full composite deck added in 2023 overlooks the spacious yard and offers plenty of room to relax or entertain. The property also features a new septic system installed in April 2025 for added peace of mind. Situated on a quiet road just minutes from Port Byron, this home offers the rare combination of space, updates, and a setting that feels tucked away while still being convenient to town. From morning coffee on the deck to evenings spent enjoying the spacious yard, the property offers a comfortable place to settle in and make your own.
