Welcome to this well-maintained home set on 3 acres in the highly sought-after Waterloo School District. With a thoughtful layout and recent updates throughout, this property is ready for it's new owners!
Inside, you’ll find 3 comfortable bedrooms with hardwood flooring under the carpet and 1 full bath. The living room offers plenty of space to relax, while the additional family room with a wood-burning fireplace gives you even more room to spread out. The remodeled kitchen, updated about 5 years ago, features newer appliances that were replaced at that time. A dining area connects the spaces nicely.
Practical updates include a brand-new roof (2025), HVAC system (4 years old), and water heater (4 years old).
Step outside to enjoy the 3-acre setting with plenty of room for recreation, gardening, or just soaking up the privacy. An oversized detached garage provides ample storage and space for vehicles, hobbies, or a workshop.
This home combines country living with the convenience of being in the Waterloo School District and easy access to Route 3 — a rare find you won’t want to miss!
