If you’ve been searching for a place where you can truly work, build, & create, this one hits different. Set on a full acre on a private road to driveway, this John Houston semi-custom home comes with the kind of setup that’s getting harder to find—a serious 30x40 Mueller workshop built for people who actually need space to get things done. Heavy-duty steel construction, foam insulation, electricity, & a 10-foot rolling door mean you can pull in equipment, trucks, or projects without compromise. Inside, there’s even an 11x8 office with its own heat pump and AC. And yes, the heavy-duty shelving stays with the right offer. The home itself doesn’t take a backseat either. With 4 bedrooms (and one easily doubling as a dedicated office), it’s built for comfort. The open living area is bright & welcoming, with a wall of windows, hand-scraped wood floors, and a wood-burning stove that adds both efficiency & character. The kitchen has granite countertops, knotty alder cabinets, stainless appliances, and a vent hood that exhausts outside. Recent upgrades include a 2025 Amana 5-ton, 17 SEER heat pump system with smart thermostat and surge protection, plus updated carpet and padding in the primary bedroom. Functionality carries throughout: a fully built-out laundry room with extensive cabinetry (doubling as a second pantry), an oversized 24-ft deep garage with storage, and a security setup that includes a SimpliSafe system and a 6-camera Lorex system covering both the home and workshop. Outside, the acre is fully usable with a 2-zoned sprinkler and an aerobic septic system that’s been regularly serviced. Roof repairs were completed in 2026, and fresh paint touch-ups give the home a clean, move-in-ready feel. This isn’t just a house—it’s a workspace, homestead, and everyday retreat all in one. If you need room for tools, toys, or a hobby—and don’t want to sacrifice comfort—this property is built for exactly that. Please see the extensive list of upgrades and features provided.
