Property Description
Completely renovated from top to bottom and situated on approximately 3.5 unrestricted acres, this exceptional property offers the rare combination of a beautifully updated home, abundant living space, privacy, and room to enjoy the outdoors--all in an incredibly convenient location. Nearly every detail has been thoughtfully refreshed, creating a move-in-ready home with the character, flexibility, and space that are increasingly difficult to find. The main level welcomes you with an open, light-filled floor plan highlighted by soaring cathedral ceilings in both the living and dining areas. A beautiful stone fireplace anchors the living and dining rooms, while the completely new kitchen features stylish cabinetry, updated finishes, generous workspace, and an easy flow into the adjoining breakfast room. Whether entertaining family and friends or enjoying a quiet evening at home, the layout is designed for comfortable everyday living. Two generously sized bedrooms are located on the main level, including an impressive primary suite with a beautifully renovated, spa-like bath. A second spacious bedroom, additional bath, and convenient main-level laundry room complete this floor. Outdoor living is equally impressive. A covered front porch welcomes guests, while the expansive covered back porch features a dramatic vaulted wood ceiling and overlooks the property's beautiful private grounds. With approximately 3.5 acres of open lawn, mature trees, and wooded surroundings, there is plenty of room to spread out, entertain, garden, play, or simply relax and enjoy the peaceful setting. The finished basement dramatically expands the home's possibilities and provides exceptional flexibility for extended family, multi-generational living, guests, older children, hobbies, or additional everyday living space. The lower level features a large recreation room, separate living room, kitchen, two additional bedrooms, and a full bath, along with its own private patio. Outside, the unrestricted acreage opens the door to countless possibilities. Create a mini-farm, add fencing for animals, build an additional garage or workshop, establish a large garden, store recreational equipment, or simply enjoy the luxury of having room between you and your neighbors. Mature trees and expansive green space provide a wonderful sense of privacy without sacrificing convenience. Additional features include an attached two-car garage, generous parking, multiple outdoor living areas, and a peaceful setting that feels tucked away while remaining convenient to shopping, restaurants, retail, schools, interstate access, and everyday necessities. If you've been searching for a totally renovated home with flexible living space, unrestricted acreage, privacy, and room to make the property your own, this one truly delivers.
