The custom kitchen features granite countertops, new appliances, a chef-quality gas cooktop, and electric wall oven. The kitchen breakfast bar opens to a sun-filled den with charming bay window, gas stove and door to the private side deck. The main-level primary suite includes a walk-in closet, and en suite bath, while a second main-floor bedroom and full bath offer excellent guest space.

Recent updates include fresh interior and exterior paint, new HVAC systems upstairs and down, and all replaced AC ductwork beneath the home. A full array of solar panels keeps electric costs down and EV charger is installed, ready to plug in. Out back, the fully fenced yard is ready for fun, with a large Trex deck, pergola-covered custom stock tank “cocktail pool,” and a fire pit area made for storytelling under the stars. Two exterior storage buildings provide space for bikes, fishing gear, tools, or owner storage. Zoned commercial, this home offers flexibility as a full-time residence, second home, short-term rental, boutique B&B, or creative live/work retreat.
