The Urban Wilderness Surprise. This home is peacefully surrounded by hundreds of acres of Urban Wilderness nature, including mature hardwood trees, natural wildlife, and foliage. Drink your morning coffee and watch the squirrels and deer frolic in the yard while you prepare breakfast in your spacious kitchen. Two generous bedrooms, both with ensuites, gives everyone a feeling of space and privacy. The large open living room is flooded with natural light allowing for expansive views of the outdoors. Two more bedrooms are located on the lower level as well as another newly renovated full bathroom. The basement den is currently being used as a workshop but bring your imagination and see the possibilities of creating a game room, theater room, or playroom. A savvy buyer will see the vision to turn the downstairs into an apartment for rentals and let someone else pay the mortgage. Bring your bicycles since this home is located right beside the trails and use the under the steps storage or attached carport to house all the recreational toys. It doesn't get any closer to the Urban Wilderness than this! With a focus on nature and privacy, yet minutes from downtown, this unique home is ready for you to add your personal touches and make it your own.
