Property Description
If you love to entertain, work on projects, or simply want more room to enjoy life, this home delivers! The backyard steals the show--nearly an acre with a heated above-ground pool, spacious deck, and covered porch featuring a hot tub and mounted TV. Summer parties, game days, or quiet evenings--you're set! And the location is hard to beat. You'll feel like you're tucked away in the country, surrounded by space and privacy, yet you're still close to town, shopping, dining, and major roads. It's that perfect combination of secluded living without giving up everyday convenience. Don't miss the awesome detached insulated woodshop with electricity--a dream setup for woodworking, hobbies, projects, or your own creative space. Inside, you'll find 5 bedrooms, 4 baths, generous living areas, large closets, solid 6-panel oak doors, and a beautiful two-sided fireplace. The finished lower level keeps the fun going with a wet bar and electric fireplace, plus an additional unfinished basement with a separate entrance and tons of possibilities. Recent updates include a new roof with a 10-year warranty, new AC, new pressure tank, and rented water softener. Space, privacy, a country feel, incredible outdoor entertaining, a serious workshop, and an ideal location close to everything--this one checks boxes you just don't find every day! This isn't just a house--it's a place to live, entertain, create, and make your own.
