If privacy is what you're looking for, you'll find it in abundance. Tucked away on over five acres of mostly wooded land, this beautifully renovated ranch is anything but ordinary! Step inside and be pleasantly surprised by the thoughtful updates, modern finishes, and unique features that make this home truly special. A beautifully updated kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining and living areas, creating a bright and welcoming space perfect for everyday living and entertaining. With three bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite featuring a private bath and walk-in closet, plus two additional bathrooms, there's plenty of room to spread out. A spiral staircase adds character and charm, leading to a finished lower-level media room that's ideal for movie nights, entertaining, or simply relaxing. There's also additional unfinished but clean and dry basement space for your workshop or storage needs. Step outside to the covered back deck, where you can enjoy your morning coffee, unwind at the end of the day, or take in the peaceful sights and sounds of nature. Surrounded by over five acres in a rural setting, you'll appreciate the exceptional privacy and tranquility of this beautiful property. Modern conveniences have not been overlooked. Mini splits provide heating and cooling (oil furnace backup), while solar panels paired with Tesla Powerwall battery storage offer an impressive combination of energy efficiency and peace of mind. The system provides backup power during outages, much like a generator, adding an extra layer of comfort and security to country living. A two-car garage and additional outbuilding offer valuable space for storage, hobbies, and outdoor equipment. Style and comfort meets peaceful country living. With thoughtful renovations, distinctive character, innovative energy features, and over five acres to call your own, this property offers a rare combination of privacy, functionality, and charm.
