Water, water and more water! Nestled off a quiet dirt road, this two story, three bed, two and a half bath home with twenty beautiful acres has the canvas you are looking for to create the rural homestead or farm of your dreams. Pristine hardwoods throughout the home and most of the original fixtures show off how well the home has been cared for since it was built in 2003. From the porch, that is on three sides of the home, to the brick fireplace, to the enclosed garage for two vehicles, to a bonus room above the garage, you'll find just what you need here and room to expand. In preparation for listing, the owners installed new French doors in the dining room, a new storm door and fans on the porch. A special green option of a solar hot water heater is set up to offset the home's energy use.
Outside you'll find a 30'x40' pole style metal equipment building with cement floors and a large 15 ft. lean-to across the back. This property also has effortless Rocky Creek access on the back side, a piped artesian well for easy use and two beautiful ponds, one acre and five acres respectively. The entire property is about 1/3 wooded. Approximately five acres collectively in the front of the house and back area have old established coastal Bermuda grass. At one point the owners could make about 70 bales of hay per year. With something for everyone, be sure to check out this unique diamond of a listing before it goes under contract!
