Set on 5 peaceful acres just outside Oregon, this one-owner two-story home offers a thoughtful blend of space, comfort, and utility. Built in 1992 and expanded with a substantial 16x30 addition, the home features an expansive living room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace—ideal for gatherings, movie nights, or quiet evenings. The large eat-in kitchen includes solid-surface counters with seating for four, ceramic tile flooring, and space for a kitchen table, with slide-outs leading to the back deck. A formal dining room and half bath round out the main floor, with solid six-panel doors adding warmth throughout. Additional highlights include a screened-in porch for shaded outdoor enjoyment and a finished lower level with family room, projector and screen, roughed-in bath, and a flexible office or den—plus generous unfinished space for storage or future expansion. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a walk-in shower and onyx sink, complemented by two additional bedrooms and a second full bath. HVAC improvements include a brand-new A/C system (May 2024) and a furnace less than 10 years old. Outside, the 70x25 main outbuilding offers shop space, parking for two vehicles, an additional covered open parking bay, and two enclosed storage bays—plus a versatile retreat ideal for hobbies, projects, or downtime. The backyard is designed for relaxation and recreation, featuring a deck with gazebo and a 21' round pool with surrounding deck. A covered front porch with swing welcomes guests and offers a quiet spot to unwind. With its traditional charm and modern upgrades throughout, this home offers comfort, functionality, and room to grow in a peaceful rural setting.
