Tucked back among mature trees just behind Northview High School, this 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers privacy and space that's hard to find - 5 acres of wooded grounds with a large open lawn, a covered pergola perfect for evening relaxing, a planted garden with cactus and other perennials, and a detached garage for storage or a workshop. Wildlife lovers will appreciate regular visits from turkeys, deer, rabbits, and more. The layout also allows for an easy conversion of the half bath to a full second bathroom. Inside, you'll find original hardwood floors and wood paneling that give the home real character, an eat-in kitchen, and a full unfinished basement offering plenty of room for storage or future expansion. The living room is currently heated by a gas furnace, with the chimney still in place for a buyer who'd like to add a wood-burning stove back. Major systems offer real peace of mind, too, with the AC, well/pressure system, septic, electrical, and plumbing all updated within the last 5-10 years. This is a wonderful opportunity to bring your own vision and cosmetic updates to a home with great bones - and the big-ticket items already handled - in a peaceful, wooded setting.
