Exterior improvements, including roof, gutters, and siding, provide peace of mind for years to come. Outdoor living is equally exceptional with a covered front porch, wraparound deck, covered patio, mature trees, and breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside. The oversized garage offers incredible capacity with tandem spaces ideal for vehicles, equipment, or recreational toys, while two additional outbuildings—including a workshop with electricity—expand the possibilities even further. Whether you envision creating your own hobby farm full of animals, adding a pickleball court, establishing a private retreat, or holding the extra parcel as an investment opportunity, this remarkable property offers endless potential.
