    Property Description

    Discover the perfect blend of modern updates, peaceful privacy, and versatile living space on nearly 2 wooded acres. This beautifully remodeled 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers approximately 3, 200 finished square feet with an open-concept design, thoughtful updates, and incredible indoor and outdoor amenities. Step inside to a clean, modern interior that was upgraded throughout in 2022, including new flooring, lighting, paint, and appliances. The inviting main level features an open-concept layout and a beautiful wood-burning fireplace, creating a warm and welcoming gathering space. The lower level was completely renovated in 2026 adding tremendous flexibility with a third bedroom, full bathroom, comfortable living space, and a private built-in sauna! The lower level also features a fireplace with gas hookup for cozy comfort! The walkout basement opens directly to a concrete patio, making it easy to enjoy the natural surroundings and extend your living space outdoors. Outside, the property truly shines. Set on 1.96 wooded acres with a creek adjacent to the property, apple and crab apple trees, and offers a peaceful setting with room to relax, garden, work, and entertainment. The large composite deck and enclosed gazebo create an exceptional outdoor retreat, and there are 3 raised garden beds. For the hobbyist, craftsman, or outdoor enthusiast, there is NO SHORTAGE OF WORKSPACE!

The upper/lower attached garage, detached shop, and shed total 2, 712 sq feet!! Conveniently located within walking distance of church and just minutes from groceries and shopping, this property offers the privacy and character of acreage without sacrificing everyday convenience.
