Hard to find a house in this price range as beautifully updated as this one, with this much land, AND in the College Community school district! Step inside and hang out in the cozy living room with a built-in electric fireplace. 2 of the bedrooms, a full bath, and main floor laundry round out the first level. Upstairs houses the huge primary bedroom with a office or reading space with a west-facing window and transom. There's also a large primary bath with shower, and tub, as well as a walk-in closet. The walkout lower level has a 4th non-conforming bedroom rec room area, and another full bath. The massive deck outside overlooks the private woods. There is a one-stall next to the house and a large 30x42 insulated and heated garage as well!

RR1
Rural Residential One-Acre District
The purpose of the rural residential one-acre district is to prevent a class of lots created under the prior zoning ordinance from becoming nonconforming. One acre lots were previously allowed in the former agricultural district and many were created. The goals of the county comprehensive plan discourage this size of lot in rural areas. The RR1 district is created to allow rebuilding of single-family residences on previously created one acre lots if the current structure is destroyed. The RR1 district is a closed district, however, and no new RR1 districts shall be allowed. For more information concerning how the goals and objectives of the comprehensive plan relate to each zoning district, refer to Table 107-147-3 at the end of article VII of this chapter.
