** OFFER DEADLINE 1/16 @ 6pm -- Want rural living, room for a garden and no city taxes? Well look no further! Sitting on just under half an acre of land this home is close to commuter routes, under 2 miles to grocery stores and restaurants and so close to historic downtown Frederick. This 1,300 + sq. ft. rancher offers one level living at its finest and the 2-car oversized/extra-deep garage is the cherry on top. Upon entering the front door you are greeted with a large family room with vaulted ceilings and unique decorative paneling. Moving through the living space the charm continues in the renovated galley style kitchen with newer stainless steel appliances, granite counters, and bright white cabinets. Flanking these two spaces is a cozy room with original built-ins that is staged for an office, but could also be a lovely formal dining space. Proceed to the laundry/mudroom and another front entrance or out to the garage. The large, rear light-filled primary suite has its own exterior entrance, a full bath, large walk-in closet and seating area. The remaining two bedrooms are at the end of the hallway, each with their own closets and vaulted ceilings. The second full bath has been updated with a new vanity, exhaust fan and paint. Come and see this unique property and all its lovely finishes for yourself! A few NEW recent upgrades include larger water tank, a whole house water filter and acid neutralizer, and finally copper piping between kitchen and bathroom.
