Just outside of town on a paved road, this recently renovated 4-be, 2.5 bath ranch offers easy one-level living on a full acre. The primary suite sits on one end of the home with a new en suite bathroom, while three additional bedrooms and a second full bath are on the other side - giving everyone their own space. In between, a family room with a stone fireplace and solid hardwood floors opens to the dining area, next to a kitchen refreshed with new concrete countertops. A laundry room and half bath round out the interior. Outside, the large yard leaves plenty of room to garden or landscape, without being a hassle to maintain. It's country living with none of the trade-offs - space inside and out, peace and quiet, and room to breathe, just minutes from everything in town. Book your showing today!
