OPEN HOUSE CANCELLED for Saturday June 13th. Set on approximately 55+/- acres, this private retreat welcomes you with a long winding drive that curves around the pond before opening up to the home. Tucked nearly a quarter mile off the road, the setting offers privacy, natural beauty, and room to explore. Inside, the 4 bedroom, 3 bath home is filled with warmth and character, featuring pecky cypress walls, exposed rafters, and a black walnut fireplace mantel sourced directly from the property. The approximately 2511 heated square feet above grade provide comfortable living space, while the unfinished walk-out basement offers additional storage, workshop space, or future customization potential. Recent improvements include HVAC replaced in 2018, crawl space improvements with vapor barrier and de-humidifier in 2023, and a new roof in 2026. Outside, the property blends open space, wooded surroundings, and existing trails for walking or ATV riding. A large backyard shaded by a mature live oak tree and a newer deck create the perfect place to enjoy the peaceful setting. Approximately 20 acres toward the rear consist of wetlands that contribute to the property's privacy, natural landscape, and wildlife presence. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, recreational getaway, or private country setting with acreage, this property offers a rare opportunity to enjoy rural living with space to make it your own. Ask your agent to check the agent remarks for further information. For information about our preferred lender and the incentives you may qualify for, please ask your agent to review the agent comments for additional details.
