Tucked among mature trees on approximately 2 acres, this storybook 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the kind of charm and privacy that's becoming harder to find. Though it carries a Harrisburg address, the property is conveniently located in the Carrier Mills area, providing a peaceful country setting while remaining close to town amenities. Originally built around 1930, this home is filled with character, featuring hardwood floors throughout much of the home, a welcoming floor plan, and the timeless details that make older homes so special. The spacious layout includes a large kitchen, dining room, family room, and additional sitting area, offering plenty of room for gathering, relaxing, and everyday living. The inviting wrap-around front porch gives this home its unmistakable cottage-like appeal and provides the perfect place to sit and enjoy the outdoors. Outside, you'll find a detached 2-car garage, multiple storage sheds, and a unique bonus structure complete with a bathroom and shower. Summer days are made even better with the above-ground pool and surrounding deck, creating a private outdoor oasis. A small unfinished basement houses the mechanicals while also serving as a convenient storm shelter area. Located near Harrisburg, Carrier Mills, Shawnee National Forest, Garden of the Gods, hiking trails, hunting areas, and outdoor recreation, this property offers the perfect blend of comfort, charm, and country living.
