About 16609 W County Road 1491

Character and charm with 10 acres to stretch out! It is not often you find a gem like this one! This beautiful 2 story home with hardy plank siding, a new roof, updated windows, and recently replaced AC units provides peace of mind for a sound financial move. Step inside the front door to the living room with ceilings that span to the 2nd story and updated windows that provide soft natural light. Tile and luxury vinyl plank flooring are all throughout the home. Beautiful granite countertops adorn ample cabinet space to test out your culinary skills in the kitchen. A wood burning fire place sits center stage to make the family room extra cozy. Down stairs there are 3 bedrooms with walk-in closets and an oversized hall bathroom. Stone countertop vanity and a tiled tub-shower are easily accessible. The third bedroom on the first floor has a full en suite bathroom, plus private exterior access making it the perfect apartment or guest room. Upstairs you will find the 4th bedroom with an en suite bathroom also with stone countertops and a tiled walk-in shower. If you are ready to fire up the grill and entertain outdoors or just want a peaceful place to relax, there are two covered porches that say the party will go on, rain or shine! We haven't explored outdoors yet! Looking for extra storage space? If the oversized pump house and storage building does not cover it, there is a pole barn with 3 enclosed stalls and the rest is an open covered area. Enjoy nature under the oak trees by the fire pit or looking out over the private pond from the wooden dock where you may even catch a fish! This property has so many possibilities, lets make them your new reality!
