Escape the rental cycle and enjoy this great starter home in rural Carlisle area. Nestled amidst lovely mature trees, this 0.78 acre property offers the perfect blend of rural tranquility and urban convenience, with easy access to shopping and downtown just a short drive away. Privacy and shade are plentiful as you sit around the fire pit roasting marshmallows or swing in a hammock under the trees. The covered patio provides a perfect spot for outdoor grilling, rain or shine, and the 2-car carport ensures safe parking for your vehicles plus extra spots for guests. Step inside, and you'll be greeted by the warmth of original hardwood floors that adorn most of the home, adding character and charm not found in today's modern homes. The kitchen has been tastefully updated with neutral paint, newer cabinetry and offers enough room for a cozy eat-in kitchen table. The main hall bath has undergone thoughtful updates as well, featuring a colorful vanity, new lighting, and stylish tile floors, adding a touch of modernity to the home. Additionally, a full basement awaits your creative vision, offering potential for future expansion or accommodating your storage needs. 3 BRs, 1 BA and 1260 sq feet complete this home. Kids playset can remain. Lights in the trees and hammocks do not convey. Rear property line extends to the stream runoff area and generally follows the treeline.
