Property Description
Located in the quiet Briarwood subdivision just 10 minutes from town, this 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom, 2 bonus room home offers space and a touch of country charm on just under half an acre. A gravel driveway leads you to the house, with a 14' x 21' detached garage nearby. A covered front porch with a swing invites you to slow down and take in the surrounding greenery. Inside, the recently refreshed interior has brand new paint and carpet throughout. The spacious living room features a skylight that draws in natural light and a gas log fireplace for cozy evenings. From there, the space flows into the dining area and kitchen, with appliances, granite counters, lots of cabinet space, and a pantry for extra storage. Behind the kitchen is the laundry room with washer and dryer, built-in cabinets, and outside access to the deck. Off the living room is the first of two bonus rooms. Down the hall, the Master Suite features its own bathroom plus an additional multi-use space. Two linen closets in the hallway provide extra storage, and the second full bathroom is centrally located with a shower/tub combo. The second bonus room and the huge guest bedroom with a walk-in closet are at the end of the hall. Featuring flexible living spaces, recent renovations, and a location just minutes from town, this home is a standout - schedule your showing it before it disappears!
