Enjoy the quiet country setting while remaining only minutes from shopping, dining, the hospital, and more. Lake Cumberland is also within easy reach, with Lee's Ford Marina approximately 11 miles away and a boat ramp less than 3 miles from the home, providing convenient lake access for a small boat, kayak, or canoe.

On the opposite side of the home, you'll find two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom with a tiled tub/shower combination. Downstairs, the walk-out basement offers incredible versatility and could serve as the perfect in-law suite, guest quarters, or even a home-business setup. Featuring a kitchenette area, bedroom, full bathroom, utility room, and spacious living area, this lower level adds tremendous value and functionality to the home.
