Privacy, convenience, and plenty of parking come together in this unique 2-bedroom, 3-bath home! Located along Route 161, this property offers an easy commute to both Centralia and Mt. Vernon while its mature, thoughtfully designed landscaping creates a surprising sense of seclusion and privacy.
Inside, you’ll find two bedrooms and three bathrooms, along with a basement offering additional space and flexibility for storage, hobbies, a workshop, or future living needs. The attached 1.5-car garage provides convenient everyday parking, while the property also features a two-car detached permanent carport, giving you plenty of room for vehicles, equipment, or recreational toys.
One of the home’s standout features is the landscaping, which creates a private setting despite the convenient location along a main route. If you’re looking for a home that combines accessibility with a more secluded feel, this property is worth a look!
