Property Description

If you've been looking for a little more room to breathe, this exceptionally well-cared-for walkout ramblermay be exactly what you've been waiting for. Set on 2.51 wooded acres near Sand Dunes State Forest, this property combines an immaculate, comfortable home with mature trees, beautiful views and a versatile outbuilding - an increasingly hard-to-find combination. The same owners have called this property home for 49 years, and their pride of ownership shows from the moment you arrive. The main level features a spacious living room, eat-in kitchen and the convenience of three bedrooms on one level. This is a home that has been lovingly maintained over the years, while still offering the next owners an opportunity to add their own style and updates. The walkout lower level has a warm, rustic feel with wood ceilings, a wood-burning stove and plenty of room to gather and relax. A cozy sitting area and den with custom built-in shelving and cabinetry provide additional living space, while a large pantry, 3/4 bath and laundry room offer an impressive amount of storage. Walk directly outside to the concrete patio and walkway leading to the outbuilding. The 24' x 18' outbuilding is a wonderful bonus. Once used to house a horse many decades ago, today it offers a concrete floor, electricity, a 4' overhead door and terrific space for lawn equipment, tools, hobbies, projects and storage. Mature trees surround the property, while the open views add to the wonderful sense of space and privacy. Enjoy your morning coffee surrounded by nature, spend an afternoon working on a project in the outbuilding, or settle onto the patio in the evening and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Many of the major improvements have already been completed, including a new furnace, central air and water heater in 2025, roof in 2022 and septic system in 2020 - another reflection of how carefully this property has been maintained. After 49 years with the same owners, this special property is ready for its next chapter!
