This rare gem offers the perfect blend of country charm and convenient location—just minutes from town, yet with all the peaceful vibes of a rural retreat. Backing up to a scenic pond (not on the property but ideal for enjoying the view), this home invites you to relax the moment you step through the front door. You'll be immediately drawn to the tall ceilings, expansive windows, and the cozy gas fireplace that anchors the living space. The open-concept kitchen and living room create the perfect layout for entertaining or simply enjoying time with family. The kitchen features sleek hard surface countertops, stainless steel appliances, and plenty of space to gather around the large island. The main level includes a split floor plan with three spacious bedrooms, while upstairs offers two additional rooms currently used as bedrooms (no closets) —each with their own sitting area, giving you flexibility for guests, hobbies, or a home office. Outside, the property is ready for your homesteading dreams with a 30x40 pole building, fenced garden space, and a chicken coop already in place. There’s even a storm shelter to give peace of mind during severe weather. Whether you're relaxing on the covered back porch or enjoying evenings around the newly added fire pit area, this home is built for comfort, functionality, and those unforgettable views. Don’t miss your chance to make it yours!
