Discover a truly unique property offering privacy, timber, a small stream, and exceptional workspace all in one. Set on approximately 3 acres of wooded ground with a creek running through, this 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom home provides 1,373 square feet of comfortable living space paired with an expansive attached workshop and garage. It's an ideal setup for car enthusiasts, hobbyists, woodworkers, or anyone who needs room to work and create. The kitchen, dining, and living areas flow together in an open layout that draws in natural light and peaceful views of the trees. Both bedrooms include generous closet space, and the shared bath is conveniently located. Major mechanicals include a water heater that's approximately 2 years old and an A/C heat pump replaced about 5 years ago for added peace of mind. The standout feature is the attached workshop and garage offering more than 1,600 square feet of space with high ceilings and concrete flooring. There are four 10' x 12' doors (the two middle doors equipped with garage door openers). The design supports a clean, organized environment for projects, equipment, vehicle storage, lifts, studio work, or recreational use. Outdoors, the concrete patio provides a quiet place to unwind and take in the natural surroundings. A rare combination of acreage, practical living, and exceptional workspace, all just minutes from town. Some may call this property a retreat, a home by the woods, a shouse, or a barndominium, and you could call it home.
