About 8217 Fm 1857 S

Get out of the city! This is the perfect place to spend holidays, weekends, retire to...it is a picture of tranquility. The home is set back off the road behind a fenced and gated entrance along the banks of a 5 acre lake that is perfect for fishing, pedal boating and observing wildlife. The land itself is 3 acres of a former day lilly farm with gorgeous views and mature trees...a very lovely and peaceful setting. With 3 nice bedrooms and 2 baths that have been recently updated, it will provide very comfortable accommodations. Just off of the bedrooms is a central living room with custom built-ins, fireplace with electric logs (can be used as a woodburning) trayed lighting and inlaid wood ceiling. An updated kitchen with stainless appliances and granite countertops and a great breakfast room overlooking the water make meals a joy to share. The home has a brand new roof, was freshly painted on the exterior as well as the detached garage, has a whole home generator and solar panels that are completely paid for. The electric costs are next to nothing on this property due to the solar service. A LARGE detached garage has 3 car spaces but currently 1 space is being used as a workshop. Upstairs in the detached garage is a large open area and a smaller room with electricity and plumbing. Designed to be finished out for guest quarters. This is a wonderful opportunity to reside just minutes from city conveniences yet enjoy the quiet country lifestyle
