Looking for a home with privacy, charm, and room to enjoy a little country living? This property brings together low-maintenance features, functional spaces, and a peaceful outdoor setting! Tucked away on a large, private, tree-shaded lot, this home features easy-care vinyl siding, an architectural shingle roof just 4 years old, an attached carport, and a limestone driveway. Inside, the open living room and kitchen create a comfortable, connected space, with custom wood details and accent walls adding warmth and personality. The kitchen offers a mobile island that stays with the home, built-in microwave, electric range and oven, dishwasher, ceramic countertops, and a stainless steel sink with a window overlooking the backyard. Just off the kitchen, step outside to the wooden deck—perfect for morning coffee, weekend grilling, or winding down in the evenings. The home includes 3 bedrooms, each with a ceiling fan and closet, plus a full hall bathroom with a tub/shower combination. A dedicated laundry room with electric washer and dryer hookups adds everyday convenience. Outside is where this property really shines! Enjoy the spacious, shaded backyard, a chicken coop and fenced chicken yard (and yes, the chickens can stay!), plus a metal storage building with an overhead door and concrete pad for tools, hobbies, lawn equipment, or extra storage. If you're searching for a home with a large lot, private backyard, outdoor living space, storage building, and room for a little homestead lifestyle, this one is worth a look. A great mix of practical features, character, and country-style charm with space to make it your own!
