The dining room flows seamlessly into a spacious kitchen, featuring tile flooring, ample countertop space, and countertop seating, perfect for casual gatherings. A full bathroom is conveniently located on the main level. Outdoors, you can barbecue on the deck, cast a fishing line in the pond, explore the woods for hunting, take a refreshing swim in the stream, or enjoy a scenic hike.
