Rare opportunity to own this charming 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath brick rambler on a large private lot just 6–8 minutes from Hwy 18 and conveniently close to Costco, shopping, restaurants, and fast food! Surrounded by mature trees for added privacy, this home offers a spacious open floor plan with newer laminate flooring, fresh paint, and new carpet throughout. The updated kitchen features beautiful wood cabinetry, stone countertops, ample prep space, and great natural light. Unique brick accents, a cozy fireplace, and oversized living areas add warmth and character you do not find in many homes at this price point.

The home also includes AC and several major updates already completed, including newer septic, windows replaced in 2016, electrical panel updated in 2017, hot water tank replaced in 2021, crawlspace replacement in 2025, and updated furnace motor. Plenty of parking and room for RVs, toys, or extra vehicles.

Rare find with this much space, privacy, and upside at this price!
