The interior of the house has been completely modernized, featuring nearly indestructible Pergo flooring, a large safe in the master bedroom, three renovated bathrooms, and a stunning chef’s kitchen with a pot filler over the induction cooktop. Although the property is currently zoned RS-1, it has the potential to be rezoned to AG-2. This could allow you to keep your horse close to home and ride in the County’s Pop Ash Creek Preserve, less than half a mile away, or establish a homestead with chickens and a sizable garden. Additionally, there is ample space and legal allowance in place for an additional unit of density to build a detached, fully equipped mother-in-law suite overlooking the stocked pond.
