Welcome to this charming, original-owner home, nestled on a sprawling 8.2 acre lot that offers privacy and natural beauty. This property borders a serene stream and features wooded surroundings, with your own forest of Red Buds and Dogwoods bordering expansive back and side lawns. The spacious living space offers a comfortable layout with a large living room, highlighted by a bay window that provides natural light and a perfect viewing spot for the many bird species that call this property home. The expansive eat-in kitchen offers a near-new stainless dishwasher and a Pella slider with built-in blinds that opens to a recently renovated deck. A formal dining room provides an additional space to entertain guests. All 3 bedrooms enjoy generously sized closets. The primary bedroom has its own ensuite bath as well as access to a large 3-season room with a cathedral ceiling and a woodstove. This 3-season room also has access to the deck. A hall bath and a large linen closet (that could make a perfect laundry closet) complete the main level of this home. The lower level features a large brick fireplace that would be the perfect centerpiece for a family or rec room (walls and ceiling are already in place). A slider provides access to the backyard and a half bath and laundry/mechanicals room round out the lower level. This level also provides access to the oversized 2-car garage with tons of space for extra storage. Outside, you'll find an almost new fence surrounding a cement in-ground pool. The expensive yard provides plenty of space for play and entertaining, but it doesn't stop there - this property extends well beyond the tree line (to the stream) for a total of 8.2 acres! The property is currently in the voluntary CRAC Forest Conservation Program which provides agricultural tax benefits+. With numerous recent updates (roof 2+ yrs), HWH (Nov 2024), dishwasher (2+ yrs), Pella slider (2+ yrs), deck reno (2+ yrs), septic pumped (Nov 2024), this beautiful property is move-in ready but offers room for you to update and personalize however you'd like. With Spring just around the corner and the hundreds of flowering trees about to bloom - don't miss this opportunity to own your own piece of Carroll County's countryside.
