Tucked away at the end of a quiet road, this spacious country home offers the perfect blend of comfort, privacy, and natural beauty. Surrounded by mature pines and sitting on almost 5 acres, you’ll enjoy peaceful seclusion, abundant wildlife, and room to breathe, right from your own backyard. A charming front patio welcomes you, while inside, an open floor plan and vaulted ceiling create a warm, airy atmosphere. The heart of the home is the kitchen, featuring granite countertops, a center island with electricity for prep or casual dining, gas stove, wine rack, and plenty of cupboard space. New flooring and lighting add a modern touch, and the dining area sits perfectly by the window with views of the trees beyond. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the family room, which shares the wooden, vaulted ceiling and includes space to relax, entertain, and stay connected. Two bedrooms and two full bathrooms are located on the main level, including a primary suite, a walk-in closet, and a luxurious en suite bath complete with a soaking tub, separate shower, dual sinks, and extensive cabinetry. The large laundry room offers even more storage, a sink, space for coats, and another walk-in closet—perfect for seasonal items. The walkout basement expands your living space with a multi-use area that includes a utility sink, a partially finished space with wide walkout doors, a wood-burning stove, an additional bedroom, and space for hobbies, or a home office. Outside, you’ll find tiered garden beds ready for your perennials, several sheds for storage, and an attached 3-stall garage with one bay featuring pass-through doors for added convenience. This property is the perfect escape for those who value space, privacy, and the beauty of nature. Bring your personal touch and make it your own peaceful haven.
