Escape to tranquility with this secluded property nestled on approximately 7.46 acres of serene countryside. Perfectly suited for those seeking peace and space, this home offers a 3 bedroom, 2 bath house with plenty of room for comfort and future growth.

All appliances will stay; propane gas range, microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator, washer and dryer. The master bedroom has a full bath and walk-in closet. An addition of a family room, with a charming Vermont Casting propane stove, provides ample space for family or entertaining. A large deck surrounds 2 sides of the house. The basement has lots of room for storage and workshop area. Also has a walk-in vault that doubles as a safe-room, locking from the inside, and cameras monitoring the exterior. A separate double door vault is also in the walk-in vault, so lots of safe storage for large or small items. There is one detached 4 car garage and a huge barn with another 4 car garage addition.

    "It's a small town where most people have lived their entire lives or moved from a big city. People that have left frequently visit and many families know eachother. People are very friendly. Most shopping is within 20 to 30 minutes but there are 2 small grocery stores in the area as well as a few restaurants and bars. Dollar general and doc's drugs are in town for convenience. This is a town where businesses close early."
