Entertain with ease on the expansive patio beneath the covered pergola, or spend your evenings gathered around the firepit, watching ducks glide across the water, turtles bask in the sun, and deer roam gracefully through the landscape. Adventure is always within reach. Launch your paddle boat for a peaceful ride at sunset, cast a line for a quiet morning of fishing, or explore your acreage on a 4-wheeler. Every day here feels like a retreat. Step inside and you’re welcomed by a warm, open floor plan designed for both comfort and connection. The living room features a stunning stone gas fireplace, creating a cozy focal point that flows seamlessly into the dining area which is perfect for gatherings both large and small.

Downstairs, the partially finished lower level expands your options with a comfortable recreational room featuring a wood-burning fireplace, a versatile bonus room, and a generous storage area complete with washer and dryer hookups. Outside, functionality meets opportunity with two outbuildings featuring concrete floors. The larger building is equipped with electricity, ideal for a workshop or additional storage, while the smaller outbuilding includes a nearby water pump which is perfect for maintaining a garden or enhancing your outdoor space. This is more than just a home, it’s a private escape where nature, comfort, and lifestyle come together in perfect harmony. Schedule your showing today and experience the peaceful oasis that awaits.
