Description

Two Homes in One on Over 5 Acres!
Discover the perfect blend of space, comfort, and versatility with this unique property featuring two homes on over 5 acres. The main residence offers a three-bedroom, two-bathroom split-bedroom floor plan with beautiful new pecan hardwood floors and tile flooring throughout.
The kitchen is thoughtfully appointed with granite countertops, updated solid maple cabinetry, a built-in coffee maker with its own waterline, and a trash compactor. An inviting dining area sits adjacent to the den, creating a functional layout for everyday living and entertaining. The spacious owner’s suite features a large bathroom, a walk-in closet, and a private exterior door leading to the backyard patio. Two additional generously sized bedrooms are located on the opposite side of the home and share a full bathroom.
The great room is a standout feature, showcasing expansive windows stretching across the back of the home and a beautiful brick fireplace. Additional updates include a brand-new roof and a new pool pump. The four-sided brick exterior adds timeless appeal, while the circular driveway provides ample parking for guests, family gatherings, and entertaining.
Step outside and enjoy your own private retreat, complete with a saltwater swimming pool, an enormous, covered patio, approximately 5,000 square feet of stamped concrete, and a firepit—perfect for relaxing or hosting gatherings. The property also includes a two-car garage, a two-car carport, and abundant storage space.

The Cottage: Your Private Second Residence

The second home, affectionately known as “The Cottage,” is completely independent of the main residence, offering exceptional flexibility for extended family, guests, or potential rental opportunities. This separate living space features a full kitchen, a third full bathroom, a laundry room, hardwood flooring, a covered porch, and a fourth bedroom located in the loft.
With two separate homes, over 5 acres of land, a private saltwater pool, and extensive outdoor living space, this exceptional property offers endless possibilities for multigenerational living, entertaining, or simply enjoying the privacy and freedom of country-style living.
