Property Description
This home sits in a quiet, in-town neighborhood with a layout that's far from typical. Rather than being boxed in on all sides, neighbors are only to the sides of the property — giving the home a more open, breathing room feel that's hard to find this close to town. From the front porch, take in a scenic, wide-open view that adds a peaceful, almost countryside feel to everyday living, even while staying close to everything town has to offer. Sitting on nearly a half-acre lot with mature trees, the setting only adds to that sense of space and serenity. This home has a track record as a popular Airbnb, making it a great option for investors or buyers wanting flexibility. A metal roof adds durability and long-term value, and a detached garage provides extra storage or parking. The layout offers three sleeping areas, including a non-conforming bedroom — ideal for guests, a home office, or additional flex space depending on your needs. The seller is offering the option for the home to be fully furnished, making move-in and turnaround time even easier for buyers or investors. This is a solid, move-in ready home with plenty of opportunity to add modern updates and personal touches over time.
