Charming Country Retreat on 5 Private Acres
Welcome to this spacious and serene two-story home nestled on 5 acres of picturesque land—2.2 acres in forest reserve—perfect for nature lovers, hobbyists, and anyone seeking privacy with room to roam. Built in 1973 and thoughtfully updated, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath home offers over 2,000 sq ft of comfortable living space with an unfinished basement full of potential.
The main level features a bright, open layout with large windows showcasing the scenic views and local wildlife. Enjoy formal dining with beautiful cherry cabinets, a built-in hutch, living room and a generous pantry. The upper-level loft-style bedroom adds flexibility as a 4th bedroom, office, or creative space.
Outside, relax or entertain on the concrete patio with a built-in fire pit in the yard. The oversized two-car attached garage is heated, and the property includes a massive 1,600 sq ft shed with two additional garages—ideal for projects, storage, or your dream workshop.
Additional highlights include a fireproof safe, updated roof (2021), furnace (2017), water heater (2012), and an updated primary bathroom. Washer, dryer, refrigerator, stove, microwave, and dishwasher included.
Tucked down a private drive, this one-of-a-kind home offers no covenants, space to spread out, and the ultimate retreat just minutes from town.
