Some homes give you a place to live. 1288 Carter Road gives you a place to exhale. Tucked away on approximately 1.45 acres in Ridgeville, this custom-built home offers the kind of peaceful country setting that makes you want to slow down, stay awhile, and leave the noise of the world behind. Imagine mornings with coffee while the property wakes up around you, deer wandering through the yard, chickens happily at home, and evenings spent curled up by the fireplace. Here, there is room to breathe, room to roam, and room to createthe lifestyle you've been dreaming about. Custom built in 2020 and immaculately cared for, this 3-bedroom home offers approximately 1,787 square feet with a warm, welcoming floor plan and beautiful new flooring. Every detail reflects a home that has been truly loved and maintained. And there's room for the story to grow. Attic access leads to additional space above the garage that could potentially become a bonus room, home office, hobby space, guest retreat, or whatever fits your next chapter. Electric is already available in the garage attic, giving you a head start on bringing that vision to life. Thoughtful features continue throughout the property with a 2020 roof and HVAC system, gutters with gutter guards, private well, and an oversized septic system. A leased 200-gallon propane tank through Butler Gas serves the tankless water heater and fireplace and, according to the seller, typically only needs to be filled once a year. But what makes 1288 Carter Road special isn't simply what's inside the house. It's the feeling of coming home to your own little corner of the world. Plant the garden you've always talked about. Bring the chickens. Watch the deer pass through. Sit outside under a Carolina sky and enjoy the quiet. If you've been dreaming of getting away from it all without giving up the comforts of a beautifully cared-for home, you may have just found your place. Welcome home to 1288 Carter Road.
