About This Home

As of September 2025

Peaceful Country Retreat on 3+ Acres with Modern Comforts & Southern Charm Welcome to your private slice of the countryside! Nestled among the woods on over 3 acres, this beautifully maintained 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home offers the perfect blend of rural serenity and stylish updates. The fourth bedroom, over the garage has a full bathroom and provides a flexible space-perfect for a craft room, home office, or mother-in-law suite. Step inside to find vaulted ceilings, hardwood and tile floors throughout (with soft carpet in the bedrooms), and an abundance of natural light. The heart of the home-the kitchen-has been recently updated with quartz countertops and includes a brand-new refrigerator, making meal prep a joy. The master bathroom boasts a newly tiled shower, offering a touch of spa-like luxury. The large utility/laundry room adds convenience, and the wrap-around porches invite peaceful mornings and relaxing evenings. Outside, from your wrap-around porches, enjoy a pecan orchard, blueberry bushes, and an above-ground pool-perfect for those warm summer days. There's plenty of room for horses, and a lean-to shed that can easily be converted back into a chicken coop. The electric cattle gate with keypad entry ensures both privacy and security. Whether you're dreaming of homesteading, hobby farming, or simply a peaceful place to call home, this property is a rare gem that checks all the boxes.
