The best of town and country come together here. Close to the conveniences of town, yet with 4.86 acres and the space and feel of a country property, this inviting 1989 ranch offers far more than meets the eye. With 1,908 square feet of one-level living, this two-bedroom, two-bath home is filled with natural light and warm wood details. The spacious kitchen features new engineered-quartz countertops, abundant cabinetry and a large center island. Hardwood floors carry into the living room, where a vaulted ceiling and brick hearth with wood stove add warmth and character. Just beyond, a light-filled sunroom overlooks the pool, gardens, and backyard. A beautifully renovated bath with a large glass-enclosed shower is among the recent updates. An additional 1,712 square feet in the unfinished basement provides plenty of room for storage and other possibilities. Outside is where this property really begins to distinguish itself. Beautiful perennial gardens surround the home, while the heated in-ground pool and expansive stone patio create an exceptional outdoor living space. Beyond the pool, broad lawns, established vegetable and perennial gardens, a substantial greenhouse, and surrounding woods give the property a decidedly country feel. And then there is the outbuilding. At approximately 40' x 60', this heated, commercial-style building offers an extraordinary amount of space for vehicles, equipment, storage, workshop space, or a combination of uses. Two 12' x 12' overhead doors provide access to the larger section, while additional finished space expands the possibilities. With oil heat, a wood furnace, and a mini-split, the building is well-equipped for year-round use. Grid-tied solar with battery backup is another valuable feature. One-level living, a heated pool, nearly five acres, a greenhouse, solar with battery backup, and approximately 2,400 square feet of heated outbuilding space - all within easy reach of town.
