One-of-a-Kind Ranch Retreat! This property immediately welcomes you with a sense of privacy and openness. You are greeted with an electric gated entrance and large circular driveway welcoming you Home. The sprawling 5-bedroom ranch features a spacious floor plan with large rooms throughout that provide flexibility for multiple living areas, home offices, or guest quarters. A charming breezeway area connects portions of the home and creates a cozy outdoor space ideal for morning coffee or casual dining, while overlooking the inground pool! While the home could benefit from some updates, the solid construction and generous footprint make it the perfect canvas for your personal vision. Outside is where this property truly shines. The nearly 3-acre lot is thoughtfully designed and fenced, offering wide-open spaces for recreation, animals, and outdoor living. There's even a dedicated corral perfect for goats, chickens, or even horses, giving you the chance to enjoy a true hobby farm lifestyle. The grounds also includes a small fishing creek with a wooded area to explore. For those who love to work with their hands or need extra storage, the 72' x 40' pole barn is an absolute dream. Whether you're a mechanic, craftsman, or collector, this massive structure offers endless possibilities - from a full workshop or auto space to additional storage for equipment, vehicles, or recreational toys. The additional 4-car heated garage offers plenty of parking and storage space, while the open acreage allows room for gardening, play areas, or even future expansions. When it's time to relax, head to your private in-ground pool surrounded by a spacious concrete patio. Lush grapevines line the pool area, adding beauty and charm, while the view of fruit trees across the property - including apples, peaches, raspberries, and more - creates a tranquil, orchard-like setting that changes beautifully with the seasons. Come see the potential and experience the peaceful lifestyle this incredible property offers - there's truly nothing else like it!
