Life on the edge of wilderness, only 30 minutes from Kansas City! Rolling hills and timbered acreage is what you will find behind this "One of a Kind" home that has the heart of a hunter and the feel of a lamb. As you drive up you don't realize what is nestled inside those doors! Four Bedrooms, two of which are the entire second floor of the home, complete with a sitting room the size of a family room with fireplace insert and a staircase leading up to a loft that could easily be an office with a view, a library with a sleeper sofa or whatever you fancy! The master suite is just that - SWEET! The walk-in closet has built-in shelves and a seating area, even a window seat to gaze over the woods! The bathroom has a huge jetted tub in addition to the large separate shower! On the main floor are two bedrooms with a full bath, the family living room, complete with fireplace, a massive kitchen with upgraded granite countertops, island and stainless steel appliances, a formal dining room separating the two, along with a mudroom, laundry and a half bath to boot! Let's not forget the huge deck, covered patio, garden shed with chicken coop, Outbuilding for your lawn equipment and yard toys and plenty of space to build a beautiful barn or detached garage when you are ready! The timbered forest is beckoning you to check it out! What are you waiting for? (P. S. All Firearms have been removed from the home prior to listing)
