Beautiful rural custom-built home offering over 3,000 square feet of living space, located within the highly sought-after Indian Creek School District. This 3-bedroom home is filled with unique, handcrafted details and thoughtful design throughout. The kitchen is truly one-of-a-kind, featuring custom cabinetry built from trees grown right on the property, a custom island, and a matching set of stainless steel Kenmore appliances. Just off the kitchen is a versatile space that could serve as a sunroom, mudroom, prep kitchen, or additional storage-offering endless possibilities to fit your needs. A convenient half bath and laundry combination is also located on the main level. The home offers multiple living spaces, including a large living room with a wood-burning fireplace and blower, as well as an additional family room that could also function as a formal dining room. A built-in laundry chute adds both charm and practicality. Mechanical features include dual furnaces and central air units, along with an additional window unit in the upstairs sunroom. Upstairs, you'll find three spacious bedrooms, a dedicated office, and a sunroom off the primary bedroom with beautiful views of the surrounding countryside. The primary suite also features cedar-lined closets and a wood-burning stove for added comfort and character. The attached two-car garage is heated and insulated, complete with a utility sink. Situated on approximately 0.96 acres, the property offers a great mix of mature trees and open space on three sides. The front patio is accented by a custom-built rock wall, creating a welcoming and private outdoor space to relax or entertain. Outbuildings include a 30' x 36' pole barn with an 18' x 8' insulated overhead door, concrete floor, electric service, and partial insulation-just needing finishing touches. A newer 12' x 16' garden shed (approximately 3 years old) provides additional storage. This property combines rural living, custom craftsmanship, and functional space-truly a must-see!
