Description

This property is set in a private location surrounded by timber and agricultural ground, offering a mix of natural features and updated living space. The home is positioned to take advantage of views overlooking a creek, which becomes a focal point from multiple areas both inside and outside. The setting provides a blend of wooded cover, open space, and water features that contribute to the overall use of the property. Entering the home, the layout draws attention toward the rear of the property where windows frame views of the creek and surrounding timber. The kitchen has been updated with quartz countertops, dark cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances. A large island provides additional workspace, while open shelving allows for storage and display. There is space within the kitchen area for a dining table, and the open layout connects directly to the main living area. The family room includes a wood-burning stone fireplace and large windows, including gable-style accents, that bring in natural light and views of the wooded surroundings. Access from the main living area leads to outdoor spaces, including a deck and a three-season porch, both positioned to overlook the creek and provide a place to observe wildlife and seasonal changes. The main level includes multiple flexible spaces. Two rooms are currently being used as an office and a walk-in closet, though they can be converted back into traditional bedrooms if needed. A full bathroom services these spaces. The primary bedroom includes a walk-in closet and a remodeled bathroom with a walk-in shower. The layout allows for a range of uses depending on how a buyer chooses to configure the space. The lower level has been recently finished and adds approximately 1, 000 square feet of additional living area. This space includes another bedroom and a secondary flexible area that could be used for a variety of purposes. There are also unfinished sections that provide room for storage or a workshop. Outside, the property includes a combination of landscaped and natural elements. Tiered decks, stamped concrete areas, and natural landscaping provide usable outdoor space. The creek runs through the property and contributes to both the setting and recreational use. The land also supports wildlife activity, including deer, turkey, and birds. Additional improvements include a detached three-car garage for vehicles and equipment, along with a 30-by-36 outbuilding that includes concrete flooring and electrical service. This structure can be used for storage, hobbies, or small-scale projects. There are also open areas of the property that may be suitable for gardens or other uses allowed by local regulations. The home has seen a number of recent updates, including a new boiler, air conditioning system, kitchen improvements, bathroom updates, flooring, trim, paint, and lighting. These updates contribute to the overall condition and usability of the property. The location offers access to major travel routes, including Interstate 39 and Interstate 88, providing connectivity to surrounding communities while maintaining a private setting. This property combines updated residential space with recreational land features, offering flexibility for a range of uses. Recently enrolled in a forest management plan to significantly reduce future property taxes.
