Public Remarks: Beautifully updated, very well-maintained and located in Shelby County. There is something about a classic home, set in a wide-open space, that feels like endless summer. If you love the serenity of a front porch coffee as the sun rises over a wide open field... or the nostalgia of catching fireflies around the swimming pool, then you will find yourself right at home at 1271 Ellis Road. Not only is the 4.48 acre property fully surrounded with private views and open fields, the interior is just as peaceful. The front porch is a closed in sunroom that fills with natural light. Upon entering, the main living area is located to the left and smaller sitting area is on the right. The living room is a large space with plenty of room for your preferred furniture setup. The sitting area could also serve as a study or flex space. The kitchen looks to the screened in porch and pool. The white kitchen cabinets are soft close and there is plenty of cabinetry to utilize. The Samsung dishwasher, stove and microwave are brand new and will remain with the home. There are two bedrooms and a fully remodeled bath on the main level. Upstairs there is a large primary suite with a beautifully remodeled primary bathroom. The attic space is also upstairs and offers tons of storage. The upstairs primary has great privacy and awesome views of the property. The laundry room is located just off of the kitchen and it is huge! You will love the granite countertops for folding and the space will serve you well for organizing all of the clothes and supplies that come with rural living. The basement is located off of the laundry room and allows for even more storage. There is a carport and a concrete pad located off of the laundry room , as well as a ramp for accessing the back deck. The barn is just a short walk around the circle drive, located in the rear of the property. You surely will not run out of storage here for lawn equipment, pool supplies or any other need. This home is and Eminence address but located in Shelby County and districted for Shelby County Schools.
