About this property

The front entryway opens directly into a living room detailed with recessed lighting and crown molding. This main living area directly opens and flows into the adjacent dining space, which features durable tile flooring, its own ceiling fan, and a light-filtering exterior door providing access to the rear of the property. Flowing directly from the dining area, the kitchen features a U-shaped configuration equipped with extensive wood cabinetry and stainless steel and black appliances, including a smooth-top range with a matching vent hood. The tile flooring carries completely through the kitchen workspace, which also includes a pantry with a glass-paneled door. Positioned off the kitchen on the far side of the home is a dedicated functional utility wing containing a laundry room with built-in shelving, an individual water heater, and a large, separate storage room featuring painted walls and its own private exterior entrance. On the opposite side of the home, the private living quarters are grouped together away from the main utility spaces. The primary bedroom features classic crown molding, a ceiling fan, and an attached ensuite bathroom equipped with a single vanity and a fully tiled walk-in shower with a built-in bench. The two secondary bedrooms feature classic vertical wood wall paneling and central ceiling fans, utilizing an updated hallway bathroom equipped with a single vanity, black hexagonal tile flooring, a built-in linen cabinet, and a tiled shower-tub combination. Immediate outdoor living space includes a covered rear patio featuring a raised wooden deck with a handicap-accessible ramp, a garden arbor trellis, and a designated lawn swing area. The home extends outdoors onto a fully fenced acreage lot characterized by an expansive, cleared, and level lawn surrounded by mature shade trees, native oaks, and established perimeter greenery. Multiple detached outbuildings are scattered across the acreage, providing distinct, established setups for storage sheds, a metal workshop, barns, stalls, and livestock pens or coops.
