    Discover a rare combination of privacy and convenience in this charming ranch home, tucked away on a quiet lane and surrounded by the natural beauty of White Clay Creek State Park, Middle Run Valley Natural Area, and Tri-State Bird Rescue. Set on 1.2 acres, the property features mature landscaping, majestic trees, and generous sunny areas ideal for gardening—all just minutes from shopping, schools, and a wide variety of recreational amenities. Three outbuildings, including two that are insulated and equipped with electricity, provide excellent storage in addition to the one-car garage. Filled with natural light, the home offers three bedrooms, one-and-a-half bathrooms, a spacious screened rear porch, and a covered front porch overlooking a private wooded setting. The updated main bathroom and a beautifully renovated kitchen were completed in 2017. The kitchen features abundant maple cabinetry, crown molding, granite countertops, a center island, double sinks, and stainless-steel appliances. Warm hardwood floors continue into the adjoining room, where a handsome stone accent wall, chimney, hearth, and woodstove insert create an inviting retreat during the colder months. The wood stove has been the main source of heat for the owners for years. Additional features include a laundry/mudroom, several newer windows, an extra driveway parking pad, a freshly painted interior, and low-maintenance vinyl siding. Move-in ready & quick settlement possible. Nature is waiting for you.
