Welcome to the charm of small-town living in this beautifully cared-for home overlooking peaceful North Lake. Originally built in 1895 and thoughtfully updated in 1975, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home blends historic character with modern comfort—reflected in the county’s effective year-built designation.
Located in a community known for excellent schools, easy access to clinics, and a variety of local restaurants and shopping, this home offers both convenience and a relaxed lifestyle.
Inside, you’ll appreciate the practical layout featuring a main-floor primary bedroom, full bath, and laundry, making everyday living effortless. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and a family room provide comfortable space for family or guests.
Step outside to the 9×14 deck overlooking North Lake, where you can enjoy tranquil views to the north and west. Evenings are especially magical—watch the sun set over the water or gather around backyard campfires under the stars. The roof is only two years old, offering peace of mind for years to come.
This is a rare opportunity to own a well-maintained home in a welcoming small town with natural beauty right out your back door.
