PROFESSIONAL PICTURES COMING SOON Escape to your own private country retreat on approximately 14 acres in Albemarle. This move-in-ready 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers an open floor plan and has been extensively refreshed with approximately $45,000 in recent improvements, including a new roof, new siding, new gutters, fresh interior paint, new engineered flooring throughout, updated/working systems, and new landscaping.

For the horse or hobby-farm buyer, approximately 3 acres are fenced as pasture, with a two-stall barn and additional storage area.
