Property Description
Lovely farmhouse with many updates, nestled on a quiet street in a peaceful country community! This spacious home has been lovingly maintained and thoughtfully improved by its current owner. A freshly painted front porch welcomes you and provides the perfect spot to relax with your morning coffee or unwind while enjoying the evening breeze. Step inside the inviting country kitchen, featuring a new stainless steel refrigerator, country cabinetry, and ample counter space for preparing home-cooked meals. Adjacent to the kitchen is a versatile mudroom/coffee bar area that could also serve as excellent pantry space. The dining room and living room have undergone extensive updates, including new drywall taken down to the studs, fresh paint, and new windows. Newer laminate flooring flows throughout both rooms, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The spacious living room features a wood-burning fireplace and offers flexible space for entertaining, a home office, or a cozy sitting area. A fifth bedroom is conveniently located on the main floor with easy access to the half bath and could easily be converted into a first-floor laundry room if desired. Upstairs, you'll find four generously sized bedrooms with beautiful hardwood floors, along with a charming built-in linen cabinet in the hallway. Original woodwork, doors, and trim add character throughout the home. The full bathroom is conveniently located on the second level and easily accessible from all bedrooms. Need more space? The walk-up attic offers abundant storage and future possibilities for additional finished living space. The full basement provides excellent storage and workspace potential. Outside, the 2.5-car garage comfortably accommodates two vehicles while leaving room for lawn equipment, tools, and recreational items. An additional storage shed is located behind the garage. The large yard offers plenty of room for gardening, outdoor activities, pets, and gatherings around a backyard fire. Mature trees and a tranquil country setting create a wonderful outdoor retreat. Recent improvements include a roof and siding (approximately 13 years old), extensive living and dining room renovations completed in 2024, the chimney stack reinforced (2025), and fresh paint and carpet in the main-floor bedroom (2026). If you've been searching for a spacious farmhouse that combines country charm, modern updates, and room to grow, this is one you won't want to miss!
