You can lounge in the large living room and host dinners in the formal dining rooms. The "heart" of the home is the informal dining space and kitchen. Some upgrades to this area include a gas stove, an island with a breakfast bar, and modern lighting.

Upstairs, you'll find four large bedrooms, and each one has an ensuite bathroom, so the home could even be used as a Bed & Breakfast.

A unique loft area is located at the top of the house, and it features a vintage-inspired bathtub and a cozy reading area.

The home sits on one acre of land and boasts views of the surrounding countryside. There are multiple decks and seating areas where you can enjoy the scenery, as well as a fire pit and mature trees.

There's a beach just a short distance away from the home, so you can spend your days strolling by the water. If you're looking for a giant home without a giant, multi-million dollar price tag, this spot could be your dream property.
