Property Description
Longing for an idyllic woodland sanctuary? This modern home with rustic charm is situated on a sprawling five-acre lot. Large decks and patios surround the home and provide space for both intimate and large gatherings.The brick floor and skylights in the rear sunroom will warm your feet as you cozy up with a book. Gaze out over your huge private yard where you and your friends and family can enjoy nature, wildlife, a fire pit, and even lawn games. Indoors the vaulted ceilings in the living room bring a spacious feel, and the wood-burning stove adds visual appeal and plenty of extra warmth if needed. The warmth of wood throughout the home adds to the outdoorsy charm, with a beautiful view from every window! The primary bedroom is downstairs and has its own entrance to a small covered patio. Upstairs are two additional bedrooms and a bathroom. One bedroom has a covered balcony, and the other has a large closet with access to additional attic storage. Either room would make a great home office, and high speed internet is available for those that work from home. Big outdoor projects are no problem, as the large gravel driveway can hold many vehicles, and there is a carport for your use if you desire. The lighted shed is large enough to use as a workshop.
