About this home
A wildlife lover's dream! Welcome to your own private 45.8-acre waterfront retreat, anchored by a stunning 7-acre spring-fed pond with a pier/dock, stocked with bass, bluegill, and catfish. Deer and fawn wander the yard, and sandhill cranes, blue heron, kingfishers, wild turkey, and ducks are regular visitors — even a pair of swans has stopped by for a few days in years past. An electric gate welcomes you up the drive to it all. Take it all in from the enclosed sunroom overlooking the water, or cozy up by the brick wood-burning fireplace in the spacious living room with custom built-ins. This 1978 brick ranch offers 3,320 total finished square feet, including a main-level primary suite, 2 additional main-level bedrooms, and a full walk-out basement with a large rec room, a second wood-burning stove, and a family room — great additional living and entertaining space. The main-level kitchen was remodeled 4–5 years ago with stainless steel appliances and granite-look countertops, and the bathrooms have been updated throughout. The attached 2-car garage adds everyday convenience, and the she-shed runs on its own small solar panel system. Recent updates include a new furnace (2021), water heater, water softener (2025), and a 15kW whole-house generator for peace of mind. Horse lovers will appreciate the horse barn with multiple stalls, a dry paddock, and pasture, plus roughly a mile of trails winding through the property. Hobbyists will love the pole barn, with an insulated workshop area plus additional room for storage. A finished guest cabin offers electric, its own gas furnace, and supplemental solar — perfect for guests or a private getaway space. Whether you're a hunter, a fisherman, a birder, an equestrian, or simply looking for space, privacy, and nature at your doorstep, this property offers a rare combination of acreage, water, and functional living space. Located within John Glenn Schools. Schedule your private showing today!
