Whether you're hosting friends or enjoying a quiet night in, the home strikes the perfect balance of openness and warmth. Step outside and the setting truly shines. The expansive yard offers endless possibilities-from gardening to gathering-and is bordered by a sweet little creek along the edge of the property, creating a peaceful natural backdrop without impacting the homesite (elevation certificate on file).
