Come relax in 1700+ sqft rustic country style home (gated) on 2 acres. Perfect for your family/friends gathering. Enjoy sitting in your extended front porch with a peek of deer and other wildlife guests. This beautiful home has you thinking you are in the country but you are actually in the city!

Other things to note:
Our home is unique and NOT brand new but has had multiple upgrades. It has it's squeaks and quirks that remind you of it's age but yet kept it's charm. If you are someone that will be bothered by it's squeaks and aesthetic imperfections, then this home may not be suitable for you.

Great Long Term Location

We needed a place to stay while we were awaiting the birth of our daughters first child with her husband. This location was convenient to the Methodist Women’s Center and Labor and Delivery hospital as well as down the street from their apartment. We are also building in the area and we’re able to in parallel follow the final constructions. Our hosts had everything ready and gave us great access to things as we were there multiple days. We were able to keep down the expense by cooking at the house and there was plenty of room for my family. We appreciate Maria & Art’s responsiveness to us during the stay. I would recommend the house, and yea as they revealed in the posting, the house has some creaks in the stairs and the floor, but it just gives the country feel complete to the house. Those characteristics reminded me of growing up in older homes of my grandparents where that sound was just part of the experience.
