Property Description

Acreage living in town? Yes, please! Welcome to your own private retreat, an updated, farmhouse-chic 2BR/2BA ranch nestled on 2.74 stunning acres, tucked away in town yet offering the peace and privacy of country living. Close to all your favorite amenities, you'd never guess you were just minutes from it all. With nearly 2,000 square feet of finished space, this home perfectly balances modern updates with rustic charm. From the moment you step inside, you'll fall in love with the warm wood-look tile flooring, oversized picture windows, and cozy fireplace in the spacious living room. The bright, open kitchen is made for gatherings featuring stainless steel appliances, a charming farmhouse sink, walk-in pantry, breakfast nook, and a convenient mudroom. The large primary bedroom is a true retreat with sliding doors that open to your own private deck, just imagine quiet mornings with a cup of coffee and sunrise views to start your day. The main floor also features a beautifully updated ¾ bath and a second generously sized bedroom. Downstairs, the partially finished basement offers even more space to spread out with a full living room and fireplace, second kitchen, non-conforming bedroom, ¾ bath, laundry area, and plenty of storage. Step outside and fall in love all over again: The backyard is a fully fenced, picture-perfect sanctuary with a gorgeous stone retaining wall & crushed limestone accents, and peaceful surroundings framed by fruit trees, garden space, and a row of graceful willows that provide both privacy and beauty. Whether you're hosting a summer barbecue on the expansive concrete patio or relaxing on the brand-new Trex deck under the stars, every inch of this outdoor space was designed to delight. A one-stall attached garage offers practical convenience, while the oversized 2-car detached garage, crafted from 100-year-old barn wood, has been transformed into the ultimate bar or man cave, equipped with its own dedicated 100-amp electrical service. You'll also find a lean-to shed and garden shed ready to support your outdoor lifestyle. And the upgrades? Just the cherry on top: The kitchen boasts stunning granite countertops added in 2024, paired with a brand-new stove (2024) and dishwasher (2025). The main-level bathroom has been thoughtfully refreshed with new luxury vinyl plank flooring and a Pfister Tuscan Bronze finish faucet. A new water heater was installed in 2022 for added peace of mind. Plus, included with the home are thoughtful extras like a farmhouse patio table with 6 slingback chairs, a garden tiller for gardening needs, metal lockers in the basement kitchen for extra storage, and a fireplace tool kit with a matching wood bin with lid. Also included is the 800 gallon owned propane tank - filled (550 gallons) 3.20.24, 150 gallons remain as of 7.19.25. This rare in-town acreage is the kind of place people dream of; peaceful, private, updated, and overflowing with charm. Don't miss your chance to call it yours. Schedule your private showing today and experience the magic for yourself!
