Welcome to your own slice of country living! Nestled just out of town and surrounded by open farmland, this well-maintained 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath ranch sits on almost 1/2 acre and offers the tranquility buyers are searching for. Start your mornings with a cup of coffee on the front deck while taking in beautiful sunrises, and wind down with peaceful evenings and star-filled skies. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully cared for with key updates including a new roof and furnace (2016). In 2022, professionals fully encapsulated the crawlspace, updated the electrical panel, and improved lighting throughout. Fresh paint in 2025 gives the home a clean, move-in ready feel. Family room was used as an extra prep kitchen. The exterior features an additional parcel, raised garden beds, a storage shed, and plenty of space to enjoy the outdoors. Conveniently located just 1 mile from the freeway, this property offers the perfect balance of quiet country living with easy access to town and travel.
