About this home
This beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath home sits on 9.7 private, wooded acres and offers the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. Just steps from the house, you’ll find a massive 40x50 detached pole barn garage that’s fully insulated and outfitted with overhead natural gas heating, a furnace, a restroom/office, and endless space for storage, hobbies, or workshop use. The home features a striking cabinstyle wood exterior with a fully drywalled interior and rests atop a full, 1,000 Sf unfinished basement ready for your finishing touches. Recent upgrades include a new roof (July 2025), fresh paint throughout (including the basement), new baseboard trim, overhead recess lighting, and updated flooring with vinyl plank and carpet upstairs. The completely renovated kitchen showcases new cabinets, countertops, appliances, a black stainless steel sink, garbage disposal, and stylish lighting. Additional highlights include a Generac whole-house generator (recently serviced and upgraded), two water heaters, one tankless for the home and a separate unit for the kitchen, and a water softener. Home is part of an estate. Being sold "as-is"
