Set on 1.83 acres, surrounded by woods and pasture, this custom-built, one-owner home is the perfect spot for your everyday getaway! The centerpiece of the home is a beautifully updated kitchen. With granite counters, lots of cabinets, a center island, and SS appliances, this kitchen is built for those who love to cook! The main level is rounded out with a dining area, spacious LR (w/ HW floors and gas log FP), 3 BRs, and 2 baths (inc. MBR suite). The unfinished basement offers ample room to expand, and a woodstove ties into the duct system, giving the home an alternate heat source. This is also where you'll find the laundry and one-bay garage access. Outside, there's a two-car carport (easily made into a garage), new roof (late '23), covered porch, storage shed, and private paver-stone patio.
