Discover the inviting ambiance of this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom ranch home on a half acre of your own. The living room's fireplace sets the stage for cozy gatherings, while the open kitchen and family room facilitate seamless everyday living. The primary bedroom offers a tranquil escape, complete with an ensuite bathroom, tiled stall shower, and cedar closet, plus, there's a bonus room for your inner boss or your inner fashionista (hello, extra closet!) . The deep garage provides ample storage, and the expansive mudroom/den is basically a “choose your own adventure” space! We've got a remodeled hall bath, updated recessed lighting throughout, new carpet, 3 year young heat pump/ AC and a brand-new septic (because who wants to deal with that?), so you can focus on the fun stuff! Enjoy the peaceful rural setting from the front porch, a perfect spot for relaxation and reflection, where nature is your neighbor. Plus a partially fenced yard and did you see the chickens? Who cares about the price of eggs when you can collect your own! This is more than just a house; it's an opportunity to embrace a comfortable and fulfilling lifestyle.
