Lovely Ranch Home on nearly an acre, your private country oasis! This 3 bedroom, 2 full bath ranch sits on a private .78-acre lot with no HOA and offers the perfect blend of charm, comfort, and functionality. Hardwood floors flow throughout the family room and all bedrooms, and a rocking chair wrap-around front porch welcomes you into a family room with vaulted ceilings and a cozy fireplace. The entertainer's dream kitchen features a generous layout designed for cooking, hosting, and everyday living, while the oversized screened porch overlooks the huge backyard and pool, creating an outdoor paradise with plenty of room to relax, play, and entertain. The owners suite includes a walk-in closet, a luxurious garden tub, a separate tiled shower, and a double vanity for added convenience, while two additional bedrooms and a second full bath provide flexible space for family, guests, or a home office. Additional highlights include a 2023 HVAC system, storage shed, and a private wooded setting that offers peace and privacy. This is the country retreat you have been searching for!
