Experience Private, Peaceful Living in this Unique, One-of-a-Kind Home with a convenient horseshoe-shaped driveway! Nestled on a HUGE wooded .61-acre lot, this home combines rustic charm with modern updates! Inside, you'll find a cozy log cabin aesthetic with knotty pine walls, vaulted ceilings, skylights, and refinished hardwood flooring (2023), creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The kitchen is both functional and welcoming, featuring an eat-in area, a breakfast bar, a new stove (2023), and a space with plumbing ready for a dishwasher. In addition to the kitchen, this home boasts a front living room and a spacious family room in the back, offering plenty of room to relax or entertain. Two of the three oversized bedrooms feature HUGE walk-in closets, offering plenty of storage space. A full bathroom is located between the primary and 2nd bedroom and features a cast iron tub.

The recently updated 2nd full bathroom includes a stylish tiled walk-in shower, a new pedestal sink, and a new toilet for added comfort. Convenient main-level laundry means no more trips up and down the stairs!

The gorgeous ENORMOUS FENCED yard backs up to a beautiful park with a playground, baseball fields, and a walking path! You'll enjoy peaceful surroundings with easy access to shopping and conveniences. This home also has historical significance in the area, as it was originally built as Gorton School, a one-room schoolhouse from 1866. In 1977, a modern home addition was made, seamlessly blending the home's charm with contemporary features.
