Discover the perfect blend of comfort, space, and country living on this picturesque 5.31-acre corner lot. This inviting two-story home offers 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and 2 half baths designed with thoughtful details and modern updates throughout. The main level welcomes you with a spacious great room that seamlessly connects the living area, dining space with access to a screened-in rear deck, and a U-shaped kitchen complete with a walk-in pantry. The primary suite features his and hers walk-in closets, private deck access, and a newer walk-in shower for a touch of luxury. A convenient main-floor laundry with half bath, plus an additional half bath off the hallway, adds everyday ease.
