A stunning 1,200-square-foot cottage nestled on two acres of lush greenery and towering trees, offering both comfort and tranquility.

Four-Season Enjoyment: With a forced-air heat furnace and a township-maintained road, you can enjoy the house year-round in full privacy.
Wooden Deck: The spacious deck offers a perfect spot to connect with nature. You may even spot deer or turkeys strolling by as you enjoy your morning coffee.
Bedrooms:
Bedroom #1 - "Classic":
The largest room in the house, featuring a queen-size bed and a large walk-in closet. Three windows provide beautiful views of the surrounding woods, and blackout roller shades ensure a restful night’s sleep.
Bedroom #2 - "Woods":
A cozy room with a double-size bed and small walk-in closet, located on the opposite side of the house for more privacy. This room, with one window and a blackout roller shade, offers a peaceful retreat closer to the trees.
Bedroom #3 - "Stargaze":
A loft-style room with a double-size bed and two skylights, allowing you to stargaze while lying in bed. Accessed by wooden stairs and a ladder, this space is one of the most unique and fun areas of the house.

Upstairs from Bedroom #3, this charming attic space offers two twin-size beds, making it a cozy and fun retreat.

Workspace: The house is also great for remote work, with fast Wi-Fi (180 Mbps) and a dedicated workspace. Though the workspace isn't in a closed room, the large window offers a lovely view of the trees to refresh your eyes during breaks.
