Experience the best of both worlds—peaceful country living just minutes from town! This extremely versatile & updated 4 bed/3 bath ranch sits on 2 open acres surrounded by mature trees & wide-open views. The single-level, split floor plan blends comfort, privacy & functionality. Enjoy a spacious, updated eat-in kitchen w/ island, stainless appliances & plenty of room to gather. The family room features a bay window plant ledge & an impressive, painted brick, gas fireplace that connects effortlessly to the kitchen & dining area for easy entertaining. The laundry room is just off the kitchen & offers ample storage, can accommodate a full size fridge & has exterior access–ideal for pets. Wake up to serene views in the generous owner's suite w/ private bath. The walk-in closet is big enough to situate a nursery or use as an office w/ exterior access to the front of the home. Three additional bedrooms offer space for everyone, including a 2nd bedroom w/ attached bath to provide dual primary suites. An oversized, heated & cooled outbuilding opens the door to endless possibilities—guest house, future pool house, in-laws quarters, home office, or creative studio & has an attached 2-car garage. Plumbing for a full bath is already in place. New roof in 2020. Whether you’re sipping coffee on the covered front porch or relaxing on the back patio, you’ll love the quiet, open feel of this country retreat. All the space and freedom you want—just five minutes from everything you need.
