This modern home has so much to offer! It is situated on a picturesque 2.85 acres of land, with an enchanting backyard that invites you to take a walk to the creek at the far end of the property. This property features enough acreage to build a tennis/basketball court and a workshop/studio building in the back. As you step inside, you'll notice the open floor plan with huge rooms, soaring ceilings, skylights, and a wall of windows. This home flows effortlessly from room to room. The renovated kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops were designed for easy entertaining. Each bedroom is quiet and separate. The upstairs primary suite includes a sitting area, fireplace and balcony deck overlooking the serene backyard. There is an additional primary bedroom suite on the first floor as well as a home office with a separate entrance. The entire home is floored beautifully with hard surfaces. The roof is less than a year old. The outdoor entertaining area is an oasis of relaxation, complete with a sparkling pool and cabana great for hosting family gatherings, picnics, or simply enjoying the outdoors. You'll have plenty of space to let your imagination run wild with gardening, playing, or even stargazing on this rural property. Yet, it is still just minutes from downtown Covington. Come and see it!
