Country living, close to the city! Tucked away on 1.18 private, wooded acres, this beautifully maintained home offers the space, privacy and outdoor lifestyle you dream about, without giving up the convenience of being close to everything. A welcoming front porch sets the tone, while the backyard feels like your own private retreat. Spend fall afternoons watching football by the outdoor stone fireplace and TV, entertain on the expansive Trex deck and stone patio, or simply enjoy the peaceful wooded setting. Inside, there's room for everyone to spread out. The main-level primary suite features a spacious sitting room overlooking the wooded backyard, creating a peaceful retreat of its own. The large kitchen and breakfast room open to an oversized den, while separate living and dining rooms offer even more space for entertaining. A wonderful main-level home office with beautiful built-ins provides a dedicated place to work, read or create. Upstairs are three generously sized bedrooms, two fully renovated baths and a fabulous bonus/loft area. A large walk-in closet provide excellent storage, and the incredible storage space over the garage is an unexpected bonus. (Neither of which are included in the living square footage.) Best of all, this home has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated. Major improvements include replacement windows throughout, newer garage and exterior doors, renovated upstairs baths, newer roof, exterior paint and composite shutters, newer driveway, HVAC systems replaced in 2020 and 2025, encapsulated crawl space and attic, and a Trex deck, stone patio and outdoor fireplace added in 2019. An irrigation system and invisible dog fence complete the package. Privacy, space and a true country lifestyle, all within easy reach of the city. Come home, slow down and stay awhile.
