Property Description
This cozy 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers an open-concept floor plan with soaring vaulted ceilings that create a bright and spacious living area. The updated kitchen seamlessly connects to the main living space, making it ideal for entertaining, hosting family gatherings, or enjoying everyday life. A unique loft with a spiral staircase adds extra versatility, providing the perfect space for a guest room, home office, or kids' playroom.
Recent improvements include a freshly painted exterior (2026), updated kitchen appliances (2026), washer and dryer (2026), primary shower (2024) and a roof installed (2016), offer added value and peace of mind. These updates, along with the property's private well (2025) and septic system (2024), enhance the self-sufficient country lifestyle this home provides.
