Property Description
Timeless Farmhouse Retreat with Modern Comforts – Double Lot Living! Discover the charm of small-town living in this inviting 4-bedroom, 2-bath farmhouse, thoughtfully updated for today's lifestyle. Nestled on a spacious corner setting that spans across two lots, this property combines character, versatility, and plenty of outdoor enjoyment. From the moment you arrive, you'll notice the brand-new oversized 2+ car garage/shop—featuring concrete floors, a heater and A/C unit for potential heating and cooling, and plumbing framed in for a future bathroom and shower. Perfect for vehicles, hobbies, or workshop space, it's a true standout feature. The curb appeal is enhanced with fresh rock landscaping, and the expansive yard offers a firepit area, above-ground pool, raised garden beds, and room to roam. Outbuildings include a newer storage shed plus an older detached garage-style shed with lean-to and concrete floor—Both the home and this outbuilding feature all-new roofing, adding long-term peace of mind. Inside, the home welcomes you with original refinished hardwood floors, warm wood trim, and generous living space filled with natural light. Upstairs you'll find spacious bedrooms, a refreshed bathroom, and a versatile landing area with built-in storage. A fully insulated walk-up attic with spray foam insulation is ready for finishing—offering excellent potential for a bonus room, office, or additional living area. Whether you're hosting friends, tending to your garden, or relaxing poolside, this property delivers function, comfort, and charm at every turn. Homes with this rare mix of indoor and outdoor amenities don't come along often—make it yours and enjoy the best of modern convenience and country-inspired living.
