After years of connecting buyers with their ideal country retreat, I can tell you that properties offering this unique combination of acreage, infrastructure, and condition are exceedingly rare on the market. Discover the enduring charm of true country living at 11972 Straight Gate Road in Whitakers. This well maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence is tucked away on a highly desirable 4.65 private acres. The home itself features an inviting open-concept main living area, anchored by a cozy gas-log fireplace—a feature that always feels welcoming. The functional layout also includes a front sitting room, perfect for receiving guests, and a bright, four-season sunroom that effectively extends your living space year-round. The eat-in kitchen is well-equipped with a center island and abundant storage, designed for gathering. The spacious primary suite is a true retreat, offering the large bathroom amenities buyers seek: a relaxing soaking tub, separate walk-in shower, and generous closet space. What truly distinguishes this offering is the turnkey outdoor infrastructure. The property shines with fenced pasture land, two established barns, and ample room to immediately accommodate your livestock—be it cows, horses, goats, or chickens. The detached 2-car garage and separate storage building provide versatility and function that only long-term country residents truly appreciate. Plus, with the major items recently updated—a 2024 roof and 2024 HVAC—an experienced agent knows this translates directly into peace of mind and long-term savings for the buyer. This is a property that defines comfortable, private country living.
