Are you seeking a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature, yet still just minutes away from the best shopping, dining, and entertainment? Look no further! This charming 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home sits on a serene 0.99-acre lot and features both an attached and a detached garage. The detached garage offers versatile potential as a workshop or could be converted into a tiny home or apartment. Nestled at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the property backs up to expansive pine forest land, providing a tranquil setting with frequent wildlife sightings, including deer, right in your backyard. The open-concept main living space, which includes the living room and dining area, is bright and airy, with glass sliders that lead to the spacious backyard.

The main bathroom was also updated in 2021, maintaining a cohesive aesthetic with the rest of the home. The bedrooms are generously sized, with the master bedroom offering scenic views of the backyard and an en-suite bathroom for added privacy.
