Be a " Brave " and move to this Mt. Zion School District ranch surrounded by 1.5 acres and a man cave pole barn. The circular drive in front of the home is fronted with large pine trees. . The lane on the east side of the home leads to the pole barn at the rear of the property. If privacy is what you want, there is plenty of that, yet surprisingly close to the city. This 3 bedroom, 2 bath has an unassuming charm that complements the setting. The covered patio is a great feature for warm weather cookouts.
