Inside, the eat-in kitchen with pantry flows nicely into a separate dining room featuring a tray ceiling currently used as a sitting room perfect for morning coffee. The inviting living room boasts a bay window, cozy gas fireplace, and built-in bookshelves, the perfect spot to unwind. The bathroom has been refreshed with a new double vanity, and major updates include new HVAC, newer stainless steel appliances (washer/dryer stay!), and most windows replaced with quality Pella windows. Downstairs, the basement's painted concrete floors and painted ceiling make it easy to finish into additional living space down the road. Outside, enjoy the back patio overlooking the grounds, plus a versatile outbuilding ideal for a workshop, storage, or endless other possibilities. Five acres of trees, water, and quiet country living, just minutes from Columbia or Waterloo makes it the perfect location. Schedule your appointment today.
