About this home
ONE-OWNER HOME • CUSTOM BUILT • IN-TOWN ACRE LOT • NO HOA! A rare opportunity to own a truly special home that has been lovingly maintained by the same family for more than 50 years! Custom built for its original owners and nestled on a beautiful in-town acre lot, this property offers space, privacy, character, and convenience all in one. The home has been thoughtfully updated while preserving the warmth and charm that make it feel like home. All-new laminate flooring throughout means no carpeting, along with double-pane windows, spacious bedrooms, and beautifully updated bathrooms. The large kitchen offers plenty of room to cook and gather, with newer appliances and ample workspace. One of the home's favorite features is the enclosed porch transformed into a huge all-season Florida room—the perfect spot for morning coffee, entertaining, hobbies, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings year-round. On cooler Florida evenings, gather around the wood-burning fireplace with an insert designed to warm the entire house. The property also has the added benefit of two septic systems. Outside, you'll find a brand-new driveway, fully fenced yard, gated entrance, and a storage shed for lawn equipment. The home sits on a quiet dead-end street, offering a wonderful sense of privacy without sacrificing the convenience of being close to everything. The garage offers even more possibilities, including a separate room currently used as an art studio—a fantastic space for a workshop, studio, hobby room, or whatever suits your needs. Just off the laundry room is another separate space currently used as an exercise area that would make an excellent home office. With just over an acre of land, multiple flex spaces, thoughtful updates, and no HOA headaches, this is the kind of property that doesn't come along often. A beloved one-owner home with room to live, create, garden, entertain, and enjoy for years to come. Come see why this special property has been cherished for more than five decades!
