About this home
Open house is scheduled for Sunday 1-3, but don’t wait on that because sellers will cancel if they get a it under contract before then.
Your dream property in the Mt. Zion School District! This beautiful home sits on 5+ acres of scenic land that extends into the woods, down the hill, and even crosses part of Big Creek. Enjoy privacy, nature, and space to spread out, all while being close to town.
Inside, the split-bedroom design and cathedral ceilings create an open, airy feel. The updated kitchen features granite counters, newer backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and freshly painted cabinets. Additional main-floor highlights include a sunroom (or home office), laundry room, and access to a large deck with gorgeous wooded views. The spacious master suite offers two walk-in closets, a separate shower, and a modern soaker tub.
The walkout lower level includes a family room, game room (with plumbing ready for a wet bar), exercise or hobby room, and a 4th bedroom/guest room. Outside, the fenced backyard now features an above-ground pool with deck—perfect for summer fun.
The property’s standout feature is the 64×40 heated and finished outbuilding with a newer half bath, three 9-foot doors (two with openers), and plenty of space to store all your big toys, equipment, or run a workshop. The west portion can be closed off for separate use. There’s also a 12×8 lawn shed for extra storage.
Major updates include: roof (2024), water heater (2021), HVAC (2011), and a whole-house generator for peace of mind.
If you’ve been searching for a property with acreage, a premium school district, and an incredible machine shed, this is the one!
