Remodeled home nestled in wooded lot, but features convenience

If you want the freedom of country-living, but also want the convenience of being only minutes from town, this home at 144 Mystery Rock Road could be the home you've been wanting.

This tri-level brick and vinyl siding home is located in Crystal Springs Estates on a wooded lot that brings nature literally to your back door. This home has been almost entirely remodeled, inside and out. Enjoy the wooded view from the new multi-level deck. Imagine snow-covered tree-limbs and evergreens on a quiet morning.

Holidays are truly special when you can frame a large Christmas tree in a large picture window and enjoy a crackling fire in the living room fireplace. And the family can enjoy time together in the roomy kitchen baking holiday cookies. The kitchen has a warm atmosphere, complete with custom-made oak cabinets and sleek black appliances. Roll-out shelving and Lazy Susans make cooking and meal preparation easy and well-organized.

New carpeting and flooring are found throughout the house, giving this home a modern and clean look. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a roomy master bedroom that connects to the bathroom.

Downstairs is a generous family room with a warm brick fireplace with insert. The fireplace adds atmosphere as well as a very practical way of increasing home heating efficiency. French doors downstairs also lead to the multi-level deck. Also downstairs is a room that could be used as another bedroom, or perhaps an office or study. A bathroom with a shower also adds to the convenience of the downstairs living area, along with a well-organized laundry room.

This home, located on a roomy wooded lot, is located in the Jackson, Mo., school district, but is minutes away from either Cape Girardeau or Jackson. It is priced at $148,900. Contact Hill Realty for more information, 339-1600.
