Property Description
Follow the winding driveway through the mature trees and discover this 1934 home set on an idyllic 2 acres. From the moment you set eyes on it you'll see it simply exudes charm and coziness. This home has never left the family, and is being offered to you now for the first, and maybe only time ever! Drenched in hardwood and natural light you'll find a very spacious living room that wouldn't be complete without the wood burning fireplace where you can curl up with a cozy fire. It may feel rustic, but the completely updated kitchen makes it feel modern as well. You'll find two nicely sized bedrooms along with a full size bathroom all on the main floor. Built in bookshelves, hidden doors and nooks to store things in feel genuine to the build. There's a loft up above that has doubled as a bedroom in the past, but could be a perfect space to turn into a hobby room or hangout for the kids. Downstairs you'll find lots of extra unfinished space perfect for storage and a bonus bathroom for when everyone is gathered together. Outside you can see this 2+ acres has been loved and you'll barely know you're in town as it feels completely secluded and private. The 32' by 28' garage has enough space for all of your cars, boats and toys in spades with a 16' door giving you ease of access. This is a completely unique, ONE-OF-A-KIND home that you absolutely must see in person to appreciate. Schedule a showing today so you don't miss out on this beauty.
