Property Description
This is your opportunity to live the good life on your very own hobby farm in your new forever home! You'll feel worlds away from the hustle and bustle but are actually only about 10 minutes from town. Just shy of 5 peaceful and usable acres on a quiet, dead-end street. When you pull-in, you'll be greeted by a wooden ranch entrance to drive through, and keypad entry gate for extra privacy. The property is fully fenced, but also offers a large pasture, and fenced area behind the home for convenience. The barn is 36x48 and has 4 stalls with room to add an additional 4 stalls if you prefer. When you step into the home, you will immediately notice how open and bright the home is with the vaulted ceilings, elegant skylights, fresh paint, and fantastic open floor plan. Primary bedroom is huge and offers a walk-in closet, spacious 5-piece en-suite, and a sliding glass door that leads to your peaceful back yard. All 4 bedrooms have custom built-in closets for easy organization. This home has to be seen in person to appreciate how welcoming, spacious, and special this home and property truly is!
