About This Home

Tucked away on a full acre just outside Van Wert, this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers the perfect blend of country serenity and everyday convenience. Imagine mornings spent sipping coffee on your front porch as the sunlight dances across your very own small pond — a peaceful retreat where the world seems to slow down.

Inside, you'll find a bright and inviting 1,200 sq ft home thoughtfully updated for modern comfort. The kitchen has been beautifully remodeled with fresh finishes, ready for home-cooked meals and friendly gatherings. The bathroom shines with recent updates such as a new tile shower, giving the whole home a refreshed, move-in-ready feel. Throughout the downstairs, brand-new waterproof LVP flooring adds durability, style, and easy maintenance.

A one-car attached garage adds convenience, while important updates — including new central air (installed in 2022), a new well pump, and a roof from approximately 2015 — ensure peace of mind for years to come.

Outside, mature trees provide shade and beauty throughout the property, creating a park-like setting that's perfect for unwinding. A nice-sized shed offers great space for hobbies or extra storage, and there's plenty of room for parking or future expansion.

Whether you're looking for a quiet escape from the city, a place to garden, or simply enjoy the outdoors, this property delivers a slice of country living without sacrificing access to schools, shopping, and all that Van Wert has to offer — just a hop, skip, and a jump away.

Come experience your own little oasis — where life moves at just the right pace.
