Searching for a private setting and larger lot? Here it is!! A lovely 2,280 square foot sprawling ranch home on 3.91 acres in Big Spring School District near the Big Spring creek. Great location mid-way between Carlisle and Shippensburg -- only 15 mintues either way to local businesses and activities such as fishing, or biking and walking on the rail trail. This home was thoughfully designed for views of outdoor nature from every room. The living room features hardwood flooring, cathedral ceilings, and a stone floor-to-ceiling wood-burning fireplace flanked by windows that stream warm natural light and provide a peaceful view. The hardwood flooring flows into the nice size office with built-ins, and on into the dining room that's adorned with an expansive bay window and a door leading to the brand new rear deck. You can view the beautiful backyard from the sink in the spacious kitchen which offers an abundance of cabinetry, double wall ovens, cooktop, ceramic tile floors, built-in desk area and china display cabinet, as well as a breakfast nook with french doors also leading to the deck! The primary bedroom has dual closets, a private door to it's own rear deck, and a private primary bath with double vanity, shower and a jetted tub. You'll find two additional bedrooms, a second full bath, the laundry room/mud room, and a half bath that complete the main level of the home. The partially finished walk-out basement provides a third full bath, a room that the current owner is using as a 4th bedroom, a large recreation area, and tons of storage space. Parking is not a problem with the attached 2-car garage and generous paved driveway. Storage shed for all your lawn care tools., and there's even a rock-lined koi pond ready if you desire to reactivate it. Call your agent to schedule a showing today!! NOTE: Floor plan measurements are approximate. Buyers and agents should verify.
