What we love most about this home is the peaceful setting while still being just a short drive into town. Located on a quiet one-way street where many neighbors have lived for generations, it truly feels like a close-knit community. All surrounding lots are an acre or more, giving everyone plenty of space and privacy. Inside, the layout is perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen and dining area flow together beautifully, featuring quartz countertops, a granite sink, stainless steel appliances, a huge pantry, built-in desk, custom cabinetry with lazy Susans and spice drawer, plus a built-in dining bench with storage. The separate living room offers plenty of space to spread out and includes custom built-in bookshelves and storage around the fireplace. We also love the oversized laundry/utility room with exterior access, which works great as a mudroom and has space for an extra freezer. The split-use bonus room currently serves as a home gym, and all bedrooms are conveniently located down one hallway—perfect for families with young children. Outside is where this property really shines. The widened driveway and large attached carport make hosting easy, while the 1.14-acre lot offers space to relax and play. The stocked pond, gazebo, deck with outdoor TV, pergola, rock garden, fenced artificial turf play area, and built-in swing set/playhouse create an incredible outdoor lifestyle. And of course, the 30x40 red iron workshop with 220 amp plug, lean-to storage, and attached well shed is a dream setup for hobbies, storage, projects, or business use. This home has been such a special place for our family, and we hope the next owners love it as much as we have.
