Discover the charm of country living in this inviting raised bungalow, perfectly situated just outside the village of Kearney on a picturesque and private 2.5-acre, well-treed property.

Freshly painted, this 1,248 sq. ft. home offers a comfortable and versatile layout with two bedrooms currently in use, with the option to easily convert back to a three-bedroom configuration. The third bedroom has been transformed into a fabulous walk-in dressing room off the primary bedroom, complete with built-in cupboards and elegant French doors. The spacious primary suite also features a private ensuite with a large jetted tub, while a second tiled bathroom on the main floor provides added convenience. The lower level offers even more potential, with the opportunity to easily create two additional bedrooms and more living space. Enjoy the warmth of a real woodstove downstairs, complemented by propane forced-air heating, central air conditioning, and a standby generator for year-round comfort and peace of mind. Numerous updates and improvements have been completed over the years, including a new propane furnace, roof replaced within the past 6-7 years, new jet pump and pressure tank, UV water purification system, updated windows and doors, and upgraded insulation. Two new decks provide wonderful outdoor spaces to enjoy the privacy and peacefulness of the surrounding natural landscape. The level 2.5-acre property offers wonderful possibilities for those dreaming of a little more self-sufficient country living. Three outdoor sheds provide plenty of storage, with the potential to accommodate a chicken coop for raising your own chickens and creating amazing vegetable gardens and growing your own produce, all while enjoying the space and freedom that country living provides.
