Not every buyer will appreciate this home and that’s exactly what makes it so special. For the person who values privacy, craftsmanship, and a lifestyle surrounded by nature, this is the kind of property that rarely comes along. Built in 2000, this 2,911-square-foot home offers 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths, but the numbers only tell part of the story. Step inside and you'll find an inviting open floor plan accented by cathedral ceilings, rich hardwood floors, exposed wood beams, and a beautiful sunroom that fills the home with natural light. The living room fireplace serves as the heart of the home, creating the perfect place to gather on cool evenings while enjoying the warmth and character that only a real fireplace can provide. Every space was designed to bring the outdoors in while creating a warm and comfortable atmosphere. The primary suite enjoys its own private level, offering a spacious bedroom, walk-in closet, and en-suite bath a true sanctuary at the end of the day. And then there's the porch. If there is a heartbeat to this home, it's the covered porch overlooking majestic red oak trees and a peaceful creek winding through the valley below. It's where mornings begin with coffee and birdsong, afternoons are spent with family and friends, and evenings end with nothing but the sounds of nature. Just beyond, the back patio provides another inviting space for entertaining, grilling, or simply relaxing while taking in the incredible setting. It's the kind of place that reminds you to slow down and enjoy life. Practicality hasn't been overlooked, either. With multiple sheds and an unfinished section of the basement, you'll have an abundance of storage space for tools, equipment, seasonal items, and outdoor gear. This is a home where entertaining comes naturally, where privacy is abundant, and where the setting is just as impressive as the house itself. Some people are looking for a house. Others are looking for a way of life. This property offers the latter. County records reflect the home as 1,986 square feet. However, the finished lower level and the sunroom add an additional 925 square feet of living space, bringing the total to 2,911 square feet.
