If you've been looking for a property with character and room to enjoy the outdoors, this one deserves a look. Situated on just over an acre and a half, this unique log and wood home is surrounded by mature trees, with a small creek meandering through the back of the property, creating a beautiful natural backdrop that's becoming harder to find. Inside, you'll find 4 bedrooms, 1 full bath, refreshed paint, and some updated flooring that complement the home's warm, rustic charm. The screened-in front porch, completed in 2025, is sure to become a favorite spot for morning coffee, quiet evenings, or simply enjoying the changing seasons. It's also the perfect summer retreat for your houseplants, offering fresh air and filtered sunlight before they move back indoors for the colder months. Major updates provide added peace of mind, including a new A/C in 2024, a partial roof replacement in 2024, and the remaining portion of the roof replaced in 2018. A detached 2-car garage offers plenty of space for parking, storage, hobbies, or weekend projects. Enjoy the best of both worlds with the charm of small-town living and over an acre and a half to spread out and enjoy, while still being just minutes from shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences. If you've been waiting for a home with a little more personality and a setting that lets you enjoy the beauty of nature without giving up convenience, this is one you'll want to see.
