4757 Neil Collins Rd, Raymond, MS 39154

Are you ready for that peaceful, rural, almost-country lifestyle? Have you always wanted to live in a big old log cabin but were concerned with the exterior upkeep? Looking for a spacious home with large rooms, open spaces, lots of natural light and great views? Well, here it all is without being a million miles away from civilization. 10.7 acres in Raymond, private but not secluded, nestled in a natural setting, with its own pond. This is a log home, but you would not know it from the exterior, which is clad in hardyboard. Inside, you'll find the rich, natural construction one expects from a log home; a rustic, somewhat country feel, but with all of the modern conveniences you'd expect. Downstairs offers a big master suite with oversized walk-in closet, bath with excellent storage and counter space and a garden tub; the large family room, with beautiful built-ins and a wood-burning stove, is open to the dining area, but the kitchen, with gorgeous cabinetry, a convenient island and stainless appliances, is more separate. Coming in from the garage is a hall, off which are a very cool pantry/storage area, a big half-bath and a spacious laundry room built to be also used as a hobby room or an office, also with excellent storage. The entire rear wall of the home is a series of doors and windows -- basically a glass wall offering an idyllic view of the land and pond. There are full-length front and back porches, and the back porch has all new decking. Upstairs is 1300-square feet of living space. Two more large bedrooms and a enormous open loft/den/living space between the two. Great closet storage and attic access. Finally, there's a detached (but with covered breezeway to the house) 2-car garage with a woodworkers-dream-of-a-workshop: It's almost 1100 feet, well-lit and wide open to accommodate any size of wood. There are saw stations throughout with central vacuum system ports for easy clean-up, attic storage and 220-volt power. Stubbed for a ½ bath. If you're not handy, it could be a 4-5 car garage, excellent storage, an incredible man cave, a game room or could even be converted into an apartment. The driveway has an easement that is shared with two homes on at the rear of this property. 3047 square feet, per appraiser. Always contact your REALTOR for accurate valuation information.
