Some lots stop you before you even reach the door. This is one of them. Set back on 1.29 private acres in Liberty Ponds, this 2014 two-story fronts a wetland meadow that changes with every season. No rooftops in your sightline. Just trees, sky, and water. Inside, 2,688 square feet that lives right. Three bedrooms up, including the primary suite. The finished walkout basement adds a fourth bedroom, full bath, and a family room that opens straight to the backyard. Four bedrooms, four baths, three-stall garage. The tile showers are done right, and the rest of the finishes leave room to make it yours. Here's the real story: private acreage in the north metro almost never comes to market at a number that leaves budget to personalize it. This one just did. Quality bones, real privacy, and a view you'll never get tired of, priced for the buyer smart enough to see it.

WOW! A 20 acre, "potential paradise" that includes a beautifully treed, 5 acre homestead AND an additional 15 acres with some high ground, wetland with some open water to boot! Here, wildlife abounds, deer, turkeys, duck and Sandhill cranes included! This is a great opportunity to purchase an affordable 20 acres, a solid home, and a very functional outbuilding. With improvements it can be a real equity builder. The home is very clean inside, livable, and certainly can be lived in as improvements are made. The STEEL roof on the house was new in 2016. The BRYANT forced air furnace was new in 2004, and Seller says the furnace and central AC work great! The kitchen appliances are spotless and ready for use. The AMANA washer and dryer are 5 years old, barely used and look like new! The 960 square feet of lower level is a "clean slate", just waiting to become finished living space. The 22 ft. x 40 ft. outbuilding has a very smooth, solid concrete floor and 4 overhead garage doors. There are also 2 very "productive" plum trees and apple trees on the property! NO SIGN ON PROPERTY.
