Opportunity is knocking! Welcome to this 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home in the desirable City of Mason, where timeless character meets thoughtful updates. Situated on an oversized lot, this charming two-story offers a peaceful country feel while remaining just minutes from downtown Mason and everyday conveniences. Inside, you'll find a warm and inviting floor plan featuring a spacious living room, formal dining room, large kitchen, convenient first-floor laundry, and functional mudroom. Original architectural character has been lovingly preserved, while numerous updates provide peace of mind, including a 2016 one-layer roof, 2016 furnace, 2020 water heater, 2026 well tank, and newer farmhouse sink, to name a few. The septic tank was recently pumped and a conformance report was completed in July 2026. The oversized primary bedroom provides a comfortable retreat with a walk-in closet and plenty of room to relax. Step outside and discover an impressive backyard designed for enjoying the seasons. The expansive yard features raised garden beds, a gazebo-covered patio, large deck, and oversized storage shed — perfect for gardening, entertaining, hobbies, or simply relaxing outdoors. The heated garage adds even more versatility and is already plumbed for a future bathroom (currently non-functioning), offering an exciting opportunity for additional functionality, workshop space, or future improvements. Location is hard to beat! Enjoy walking distance to a nearby park featuring bike trails, baseball diamonds, soccer fields, playgrounds, and the library. You'll have easy access to recreation and community amenities while still enjoying the space and privacy of an oversized lot. For added peace of mind, the seller is including a 1-year home warranty. Don't miss this opportunity to own a charming Mason home offering classic character, thoughtful updates, exceptional outdoor space, and a convenient location. Schedule your private showing today! Vacant lot next door is not owned or included with the sale. Seller reserves the farm stand located out front, washer/dryer, black refrigerator, two freezers, and countertop microwave. All other appliances, curtains and curtain rods, gazebo, carport, and shed remain with the home. Property taxes are currently 100% exempt; buyer is responsible for verifying future property taxes with the municipality.
