Beautiful Georgia pine floors throughout the main level bring warmth and character. Gather with friends and family around the fireplace in the spacious cathedral ceilinged living room, or cozy up to read sitting next to the pellet stove in the family room. There are three bedrooms upstairs, a bonus 4th bedroom on the main level, plus a finished office space in the basement. You will rejoice in the outdoors, where you can sit peacefully on the deck watching the birds, or trek across the almost 2.5 acre lot that connects to the midstate trail. This home is a real gem, and could be all yours. But don't wait, or someone else will get it first!
