What’s special

Central air2-car garage0.81-acre lotIn-unit laundry
Enjoy peaceful countryside views from this meticulously maintained ranch home situated on 0.81 acres in a desirable subdivision with private access to Lake Jude and a residents-only nature path. The main level features three bedrooms, while the finished basement offers a non-conforming fourth bedroom plus a spacious den that could easily serve as a fifth bedroom, home office, or hobby space. The open-concept kitchen is equipped with stainless steel appliances and is open to the dining area and living room. The finished basement provides even more living space with a large family room, bonus room currently used as a workout area, and an abundance of storage throughout the home. The large attached garage features 220-volt service, a newer insulated garage door, and plenty of room for vehicles, tools, and extra storage. As an added bonus, the riding lawn mower is included with the sale. Outside, you'll find a great patio perfect for relaxing or entertaining, and an L-shaped foundation already in place for a future pole building. This property combines the tranquility of country living with the benefits of a welcoming neighborhood-offering space, flexibility, and thoughtful updates both inside and out. It's been meticulously maintained. You won't want to miss it!
