Every so often, a treasured home returns to the market. Sold earlier this year, it is once again available. Tucked away at the end of a quiet country lane, this property is surrounded by pastoral beauty on 1+/- acre. Inside, the spacious living area features soaring vaulted ceilings and expansive windows that fill the space with natural light. Cozy up by the fireplace and take in the thoughtful architectural details that create a warm, inviting atmosphere. The home lives easily as a single story, with the main level offering two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and all the primary living spaces. Upstairs, you'll find a cozy loft-style bedroom with an extraordinary surprise - unique roof access leading to a hidden nook. Practical features include a convenient carport, a welcoming circular drive, and a detached garage with workshop space - ideal for hobbies, storage, or creative pursuits. Despite its peaceful setting, the location offers rare proximity to major highways and nearby cities - all while feeling a world away. Enjoy a lifestyle that's both tranquil and connected, with a home that feels like a privilege to own. A truly unique blend of rustic charm and modern convenience.
