Country in the city! Love nature? It surrounds you on this beautiful, natural one acre+ property adjoining a 20 acre preserve. Originally built as a 3 bedroom 2 1/2 bath residence, a subsequent addition of the great room plus additional room adjacent, lends itself to becoming a 4 or 5 bedroom home with room to spare. This huge room with wet-bar, cathedral ceiling, rustic wood beams. Glass sliders on both sides open to the wrap-around wood deck overlooking the pond and natural land. This marvelous room can be many things: grand gathering place for entertaining, make it a super-size Master bedroom, art studio, music room...the imagination soars! Many possibilities exist for rearranging the floor plan. The view from the rear of the house is worth the visit to the property - you will see woods, not your neighbors' back yards! The "retro" baths are original but could be remodeled to suit. The newer metal roof meant to last. 2nd level has "loft" walkway leading to master bedroom and bath. Slip out the glass sliders from the family room to the large screened porch in the rear and to the wraparound wood deck, curl up with a good book...although you may be pleasantly distracted watching the deer visiting the pond. Property is bordered on the south by a natural creek and a privacy fence on the north. The creek is a natural path used by wildlife from the 20 acre preserve. You're gonna love it here!
