The kitchen opens naturally toward the living and dining areas, making it easy to stay connected whether you're cooking dinner or hosting friends. And when the weather calls for it, the living space extends outdoors to a large back deck with a pergola, adjoining patio, and expansive fenced backyard. They are the spaces that have hosted countless weekends with loved ones. Outside, the property offers something increasingly hard to find: space and freedom without an HOA or city limits. The large front yard creates a welcoming first impression, while the backyard provides room to play, garden, entertain, or simply enjoy the outdoors. Two sheds add valuable storage, with one equipped with 50-amp electrical service, creating an excellent opportunity for a workshop, hobby space, or additional utility.
