    What's special

    Now offered at an attractive new price! Set on just over 1.6 acres, this property combines space, character, and convenience in one unique package. Surrounded by mature trees, you'll have room to enjoy the outdoors while remaining just minutes from shopping, restaurants, schools, and everyday amenities. Inside, you'll find 4 bedrooms, 1 full bathroom, fresh interior paint, and updated flooring that add to the home's inviting feel. The screened-in front porch, completed in 2025, is the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee, relax with a good book, watch the wildlife, or create a seasonal retreat for your favorite houseplants. Several major improvements have already been completed, including a new A/C in 2024, a partial roof replacement in 2024, and the remaining portion of the roof replaced in 2018. A detached 2-car garage provides plenty of space for vehicles, storage, hobbies, or projects. Finding more than 1.6 acres this close to everyday conveniences is becoming increasingly uncommon, especially at this price. Whether you're looking for extra outdoor space, room to spread out, or a home with character that you can continue to make your own, this property is worth a closer look. The seller has priced this home to encourage offers and is motivated to sell. If you've been waiting for the right combination of acreage, value, and potential, don't miss your opportunity to see this property in person. Schedule your private showing today.
