Property Description
Ideally located just outside city limits, this distinctive property offers the rare blend of in-town convenience with the flexibility of unincorporated living. Set on 4 beautiful, mostly level acres with abundant wildlife, the land is both functional and inviting-featuring excellent road frontage and endless potential for expansion, additional structures, or simply enjoying the space. The home itself showcases timeless character with thoughtful updates throughout, highlighted by a dreamy wraparound front porch that invites you to slow down and stay awhile. A fenced yard adds both charm and functionality, complete with a custom-built playhouse. Additional features include an oversized 2-car garage and a separate outbuilding equipped with electric and A/C-ideal for a workshop, studio, or private retreat. Flexible laundry options are available with a stackable setup in the front bedroom or a secondary location in the basement just beyond the kitchenette. With four spacious bedrooms already in place, the home also offers room to grow. The finished basement provides two additional rooms that can function as bedrooms, offices, a home gym, or extra storage. A second living area, kitchenette, and full bathroom create the perfect setup for extended living, guests, or multi-generational use. For those looking ahead, building plans for a home addition have already been drafted and can be made available during negotiations-offering a seamless path for future expansion. As an added opportunity, the seller also owns the 0.4-acre lot directly across the street, complete with a lagoon, electric on-site, and finished plans for a two-story home. This lot may be purchased separately or as part of a package. A rare opportunity to own a property that offers land, character, and exceptional potential-just minutes from town.
