A secluded haven is waiting for you! This welcoming 2,300-square-foot ranch-style home is perfectly positioned on a 1.7-acre corner lot in the picutresque Forest Ridge subdivision just one mile north of Citizens Memorial Hospital. Designed to blend easy living with comfort, this home offers exquisite features and a private, serene setting. As you arrive, the paved, curving driveway welcomes you to this perfectly situated home, surrounded by lush landscaping and well maintained subdivision roads, ensuring smooth access without the hassle of gravel. The single-level design showcases a zero-entry slab foundation, ideal for effortless living. From the moment you step inside, the vaulted great room greets you with natural light and seamless flow into the tiled kitchen, dining room, and the inviting courtyard patio beyond.

Adjacent to the kitchen, a well designed laundry, mudroom and half bath connect directly to the oversized three-car garage large enough for a 3/4 ton truck. The primary suite is a true retreat, offering a spacious bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, walk-in shower, and walk-in closet. Its private screened porch overlooks the backyard and pool, creating a serene private porch space. Two additional bedrooms are situated at the east end of the home, sharing a fully renovated hall bathroom complete with a modern soaking tub and elegant tile surround. A large flex space, currently featuring an antique armoire for closet access, can serve as a fourth bedroom, home office, or second living area. This versatile room includes a cozy propane fireplace and overlooks the courtyard patio. The outdoor living spaces are a highlight of this property. Multiple porches and patios plus an above group make outdoor living ideal in this private setting.
