About 96396 Chester Rd
Freedom, function, and fully remodeled living-where modern comfort meets old-school freedom. This beautiful home sits on 1.23 acres of high-and-dry, cleared land, offering space to live, work, and thrive without the burdens of an HOA. The crown jewel? A 1,140 sq ft industrial-grade detached building with a large roll-up door—in excellent condition and ready for anything: a home based business, workshop, boat or classic car storage, fitness center, art studio. Inside, you'll find a perfect blend of charm and functionality, with thoughtful upgrades throughout. Granite countertops, slate tile in high-traffic areas and warm hardwood floors in the bedrooms (no carpet anywhere). Fresh paint and new trim in every room mean the work is already done—just move in and enjoy. The primary suite boasts a vaulted ceiling and a luxurious bathroom complete with a massive open shower and new freestanding tub set on new porcelain flooring. The family room features a cozy gas fireplace with stone surround, while the kitchen is both stylish and practical with newer cabinetry, added storage, double ovens and a gas cooktop. Additional improvements include new interior doors and trim and a whole-house water softener. Exterior highlights include a fully fenced backyard, flagstone patio with a trellis and a new septic drainfield installed in January 2025. One of the standout features of this property is the fully-owned rooftop solar panel system, offering significant savings on electricity bills while reducing your environmental footprint. The HVAC and roof were replaced in 2017 and an on-demand electric water heater was added in 2024. This isn't just a home-it's a rare chance to take control of your lifestyle.
