**Please have offers in by 8pm 3/16** Welcome to this lovingly maintained ranch, proudly owned by the same family since it was built in 1989 - offering 37 years of exceptional care and pride of ownership. Set on a private 3.8-acre lot, this home provides the perfect balance of peaceful surroundings and comfortable living. The home features 3 generously sized bedrooms, including a primary suite with its own private full bath and walk-out to the deck. The open-concept kitchen and living room create an inviting space ideal for both everyday living and entertaining while skylights fill the home with incredible natural light, enhancing the bright and airy feel throughout. Convenient main-level laundry makes everyday living easier. The full, dry basement includes a private in-law apartment with its own separate entrance, offering great flexibility for extended family or guests. The home is oil heated, though the owners primarily enjoy the warmth of the wood-burning stove, and mini-split systems provide efficient air conditioning. Step outside to a giant Trex deck perfect for summer barbeques, relaxing or hosting - complete with solar lighting on each post for beautiful nighttime ambiance. The heated two-car attached garage (kerosene heat) includes a rear door leading to a paved walkway and storage shed, offering additional convenience and storage or even for hobbies.
