Property Description
Acreage living in town? Yes, please! Welcome to your private retreat—an updated, farmhouse-chic 2BR/2BA ranch on 2.74 acres, offering the peace of country living with the convenience of being in town. With nearly 2,000 SF of finished space, this home blends rustic charm with modern updates. Step inside to warm wood-look tile floors, oversized windows, and a cozy fireplace in the spacious living room. The open kitchen features granite countertops (2024), stainless appliances—including a new stove (2024) and dishwasher (2025)—a farmhouse sink, walk-in pantry, and breakfast nook. The main level also includes an updated ¾ bath, a second bedroom, and a large primary suite with sliders to a private deck—perfect for sunrise coffee. The partially finished basement includes a full living area with fireplace, second kitchen, non-conforming bedroom, ¾ bath, laundry, and storage. Outside, enjoy a fully fenced yard with stone retaining wall, crushed limestone accents, fruit trees, garden space, and willows for added privacy. Entertain or unwind on the new Trex deck or expansive concrete patio. Extras include a 1-car attached garage, a 2-car detached garage/mancave with 100-amp service, lean-to, garden shed, patio table & chairs, garden tiller, metal lockers, and an owned 800-gallon propane tank (150 gal remain 7.19.25). This in-town acreage is pure paradise—don’t miss your chance to see it!
