Description

Attention Buyers! Motivated Sellers This custom-built estate sits on 3.8 acres and features quality craftsmanship, expansive space, and thoughtful additions throughout. Outdoors, you'll find six attached garage bays, a 40'x80' pole building, and a storage shed, offering endless potential for hobbies, business needs, or storage. Step onto the welcoming covered front porch and into a spacious tiled foyer, flanked by a formal dining room on one side and a sitting room on the other. One of the standout features of this home is the 781 sq ft in-law suite, complete with a full kitchen, vaulted-ceiling living room, bedroom, bathroom, its own 2-car garage, washer/dryer hookups, attic storage, and accessibility features like lever door handles, wide doorways, and a roll-in shower—perfect for guests, family, or rental income. From the sitting room, flow into a private den ideal for a home office, then into a sunroom flooded with natural light, leading out to a reinforced deck (hot tub ready) and peaceful backyard views. The Amish-built kitchen boasts custom woodwork, a massive island with seating, a dinette, and a walk-in pantry that includes a stackable washer/dryer. The family room is equally impressive with rich applewood laminate flooring, cedar-accent wall, and plenty of space to relax or entertain. Down the hall, you'll find a full bathroom and coat closets on your way to the garages. Upstairs, the home offers three generously sized bedrooms, a shared hall bath with dual vanity and deep linen closet, plus an attic accessible by standard stairs—perfect for additional storage. The primary suite features double-door entry, a luxurious bath with jetted tub, dual vanities, tiled stall shower, private toilet room, and a massive walk-in closet. The garage and workshop space is a dream: The first garage is oversized with three bay doors (all with openers). The second garage offers a 2-car door and a manual bay, plus built-in cabinetry, shelving, and access to a large storage loft with electric. The breezeway connects everything and houses an oil tank for heating the workshop and garages. Finally, the 40’x80’ pole building features a 12’x12’ RV door and 8’ overhead door, along with built-in compressed air piping throughout—perfect for mechanical work or large equipment.
