SPACE, PRIVACY & VALUE ON 2.5 FULLY FENCED ACRES! Welcome home to this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath property offering 2,090 heated square feet (2,567 total) with plenty of room to spread out both inside and out. The split-bedroom floor plan features an open-concept kitchen and family room centered around a cozy gas fireplace—perfect for everyday living and entertaining. The impressive approximately 32’ x 22’ primary suite addition creates a true owner’s retreat with a large walk-in closet and oversized en-suite bath featuring a walk-in shower. The guest bath and half bath have been completely remodeled, while luxury vinyl plank flooring flows throughout the entire home. Additional improvements include insulated windows and a roof replaced approximately five years ago. Outside, the 2.5 fully fenced acres provide privacy, flexibility and room to enjoy the outdoors. A substantial 22’ x 30’ detached shed with concrete floor offers excellent space for a workshop, storage, hobbies or equipment. Served by Clay Electric and conveniently located near shopping, dining, schools and I-75, this property combines the freedom of country living with everyday convenience.
