Property Description
This well-maintained Acadian-style home offers a warm, inviting feel from the moment you step inside. The open floor plan provides a seamless flow between the living, dining, and kitchen areas, highlighted by a wood-burning fireplace and cathedral ceilings that bring in natural light and a sense of spaciousness. The primary bedroom also features a cathedral ceiling that enhances the room’s airy, open atmosphere, along with a large walk-in closet for generous storage. The kitchen includes dark cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a bright window over the sink. Additional features include a detached shed with electricity. The fully fenced backyard offers practical outdoor living with a charming, rustic touch. A wooden deck sits beneath a sturdy metal-roofed cover supported by solid posts, creating a shaded, functional space for everyday use. This property combines comfort, character, and convenience, located just minutes from local amenities. Sellers are willing to give a reasonable flooring and painting allowance.
