Welcome home to 168 Lilac Trail! Tucked back off the road on a quiet, wooded lot just outside Murphy, this move-in-ready ranch offers easy one-level living with room to roam. Ample parking in driveway and in the attached 2 car garage leading to this comfortable home, where a covered front porch and full-length deck with a wheelchair-accessible ramp welcome you in.
Inside, this 1,600+ sq ft home features an open-concept living area with a stacked-stone gas fireplace, wood mantel, durable vinyl plank flooring, and a vaulted ceiling. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the living space with rich cherry cabinetry. In addition to the two bedrooms, the home also features a spacious office that is the same size as the second bedroom, providing the perfect space for working from home, a hobby room, or even additional guest accommodations. This house is perfect for entertaining. French doors lead out to the deck, extending your living space outdoors for morning coffee or evening relaxation under the trees.
The level, grassy backyard is partially fenced and backs up to mature woods for privacy, with a retaining wall and stone accents adding curb appeal along the drive.
The 3.24 acres include 3 lots, one with water rights and another unrestricted with commercial opportunity -- a rare opportunity for extra privacy, future building potential, or simply more elbow room in this peaceful mountain setting close to Murphy.
