About This Home

As of September 2025

Welcome to your private retreat! Nestled on 2.22 wooded acres that back up to protected land at Glacial Park, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath raised ranch offers peace, privacy, and the perfect blend of comfort and nature. With nearly 1,600 sq ft of living space, this home has been thoughtfully updated and meticulously maintained. Inside, you'll find stylish LVP flooring throughout (2023), a freshly painted interior, and a bright, open layout. Enjoy peace of mind with a new hot water heater (July 2024) and know that no matter what the weather is like, you will stay heated or cooled with the brand new heating/cooling system (July 2025) that stays efficient down to -20 degrees! And on really chilly nights, the wood stove insert provides the perfect heat and ambiance. Outside, the newly paved driveway (July 2025) adds curb appeal and convenience. Whether you're relaxing on the deck, exploring the nearby trails, or simply soaking in the quiet surroundings, this home offers a lifestyle that's hard to beat. Enjoy the best of both worlds-modern updates and a serene, natural setting that will never be developed.
