Welcome home to this beautifully maintained 5-bedroom, 4-bath two-story situated on an expansive nearly 3/4-acre lot in the highly sought-after unincorporated Lincoln Estates, offering the added benefit of lower property taxes. From the moment you arrive, you'll appreciate the inviting curb appeal with a freshly leveled stamped concrete walkway leading to the spacious, country-style L-shaped covered front porch; the perfect place to relax and enjoy the neighborhood. Inside, you'll find a thoughtful floor plan featuring a main-floor office/den, convenient first-floor laundry, and a cozy double-sided gas fireplace shared between the family room and kitchen. The finished lower level adds even more living space with a fifth bedroom and a fully reinforced concrete storm shelter for added peace of mind. The kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, offering updated appliances-including Whirlpool dishwasher, microwave, and Samsung electric dryer-a center island, pantry, abundant dining space, striking brick backsplash, and unique concrete countertops. Step outside to your private backyard retreat featuring a stamped concrete patio, 12' x 16' gazebo, built-in gas fire pit, mature fruit trees, greenhouses ideal for gardening enthusiasts, a storage shed, and a fully fenced yard; ideal for gatherings, pets, and play. Beyond the finishes, this home has been meticulously cared for with comprehensive maintenance records documenting all major systems.

Annual HVAC servicing by Carriers furnaces and professional septic tank pumping further confirm this property was treated with pride and attention to detail throughout.
