About This Home

Escape to a one-of-a-kind 3 bed / 2.5 bath home—designed and built by its only owner—that feels like a private retreat yet sits within 3 miles of multiple boat ramps and just a half-mile from 10+ miles of mountain bike trails. Tucked back from the street beneath a canopy of mature trees, this 1.5-story home with attached 2-car garage strikes a rare balance between architectural character and a thoughtfully updated interior. The vertical wood siding exterior and elevated clerestory windows lend the home a distinctive curb appeal while flooding the upstairs bathrooms with natural light and privacy. A south-facing sunroom quickly becomes the favorite spot in the house—perfect for morning coffee or soaking in golden-hour sunsets year-round. The former formal dining room has been transformed into a stunning library and home office, complete with custom built-ins and a charming window seat. The updated kitchen showcases KraftMaid cabinets, granite countertops, and modern appliances, opening to a cozy family room anchored by custom built-ins and a gas fireplace. Pocket doors enclose the space for quiet, intimate evenings. A half bath and versatile front living room round out the main floor—equally at home as a music room, playroom, or secondary hobby space. Upstairs, two guest bedrooms share an updated full bath, while the primary suite features a walk-in closet and a remodeled ensuite with a dual-sink vanity and custom walk-in tile shower. A full unfinished basement adds significant storage or future expansion potential. The home features dual HVAC systems (replaced Dec. 2016) for total comfort. An additional third lot is available for separate negotiation—ideal for a detached workshop or future build.
