Description

A private sanctuary on 1.44 acres! This charming 3-bedroom cottage offers a rare blend of seclusion and natural beauty that you simply cannot find in a standard subdivision. The magical setting features a peaceful creek to explore after a fresh rain, where you can fall asleep to its soothing, gurgling sounds through open windows on crisp spring and autumn nights. Inside, the main floor boasts a functional layout with a spacious living room, dining room, kitchen, a main-floor bedroom, full bath, and convenient main-floor laundry. Just off the kitchen/dining combo, a 16x10 covered deck is perfect for outdoor dining. Upstairs, you will find two additional bedrooms and a versatile landing space. The finished basement serves as the ultimate entertainment hub, complete with a built-in bar and a dedicated gaming area. Outside is a hobbyist’s dream: a 24x32 detached garage with two 8’x9’ doors and an attached 8x32 carport, plus an additional 1-car garage for unmatched storage utility. Relax in the absolute privacy of your own 30x18 inground pool—the perfect backdrop for making new memories. Property sold strictly AS-IS.
