A rare opportunity to own a private retreat where nature truly takes center stage! Tucked approximately 500 feet off the road on 8.37 picturesque acres in the Lordstown School District, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch offers a setting that feels more like a private park than a backyard. A beautiful pond & peaceful stream enhance the natural landscape, while mature cherry, beech, maple, and stately red and white oak trees create a gorgeous wooded backdrop. Deer, wild turkey & other wildlife are frequent visitors, & with no neighboring homes in sight, the privacy is exceptional. A stamped-concrete walkway leads to the welcoming covered front porch & into a home designed for comfortable one-floor living. The open-concept great room & dining area flow into the kitchen with center island. Sliding glass doors from the dining area lead to a stamped-concrete rear patio?an ideal place to relax and take in the serenity of the surrounding woods and park-like setting. The primary suite features a private bath & walk-in closet, complemented by two additional bedrooms, a second full bath and convenient first-floor laundry. Built with quality in mind, the home features 16 on-center roof construction, hurricane ties, hardwired smoke alarms and both the home and attached garage are well insulated. The expansive 12-course-block basement offers tremendous potential for future living or recreational space & is already plumbed for an additional bathroom. A wood-burning stove with triple-wall stainless-steel pipe provides an additional heat source & helps reduce heating costs. The 30x40 pole building features 220 electric, room for approximately four vehicles, 16 on-center roof construction and hurricane ties?perfect for vehicles, hobbies, a workshop or additional storage. A generator hookup, public water and public sewer provide added convenience. From the long private approach to the tranquil views from the rear patio, this is more than a home?it's your own peaceful, park-like retreat!
