Some homes simply feel different the moment you walk through the door and this one may be exactly that. Tucked beside the peaceful waters of a serene lake, this charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath block home offers 1,474 square feet of comfortable living space, a 2-car garage, and something that is becoming harder and harder to find: a home that feels like a retreat. Step inside and you'll find a generously sized living room centered around a cozy fireplace, flowing naturally into the dining area and breakfast nook. Just beyond the nook, French doors invite you outside to the enclosed 24' x 12' screened porch and this is where the story gets even better. Step out, settle in, and take in the tranquil lake views. It's the kind of place where mornings can linger a little longer and evenings practically beg you to sit down with a drink and stay awhile. The owner has even been known to catch fish right from this peaceful setting. The kitchen has received a thoughtful update with completely redone lower cabinets, adding both function and fresh appeal while maintaining the home's character. The roof was replaced in 2017 and the A/C was replaced in 2013, giving you some important major updates already in place. Built in 1979, this home combines the durability of block construction with wood siding and timeless charm. And then there's the HOA just $50 a year, making it almost too easy to enjoy the neighborhood without the burden of a costly monthly association fee. Some houses give you a place to live. This one gives you a place to slow down, watch the water, catch a fish, and enjoy the view. Come see for yourself, you may find that the best part of this home is waiting just beyond those French doors.
