Property Description
Enjoy the ease of small-town living on a spacious 0.3376-acre lot shaded by mature trees. Inside, this 3-bedroom, 1-bath home features an open living and dining area anchored by a gas-log fireplace, creating an inviting space for quiet evenings and gatherings. The country kitchen offers new stainless steel appliances and a separate pantry, while flooring installed last year in the main living areas includes a lifetime residential warranty. The original home sits on a slab, with a pier-and-beam addition off the primary bedroom that currently serves as a dressing and vanity area with abundant storage. With thoughtful updates, it could become a private primary bath. A large covered porch along the north side extends the living space outdoors, and the detached storage building on the south side offers room for tools, hobbies, or future possibilities. This home needs some work, but its generous lot, shade trees, and flexible spaces provide a solid foundation for simple in-town living.
