A 2-acre pond awaits you! One of the more truly rare opportunities awaits with this well-maintained ranch home, perfectly nestled on 4.27 expansive, park-like acres featuring a spectacular, two-plus-acre private pond--a magnificent centerpiece that is incredibly hard to find! Offering 1,968 sq. ft. of effortless, open-concept single-level living, this 3-bedroom, 2-full-bath home boasts light-filled, airy spaces highlighted by a large great room offering a cozy floor to ceiling stone hearth with gas fireplace, newer carpet, and a large sun drenching patio door offering stunning panoramic views of the pond and surrounding setting. The updated kitchen features ample oak cabinets, granite countertops, a ceramic backsplash, a huge eating bar, a stainless-steel gas range & dishwasher, and a grey glass refrigerator. Outside, you'll find a newer blacktop driveway with plenty of room to park your toys, a large concrete pad with a basketball hoop, a relaxing deck, a new roof (2021), and an attached tandem 2 car garage perfect for the ultimate workshop or storage setup. Beyond the peaceful, resort-like setting, you'll love the awesome location; you are just minutes out of town and incredibly close to local shopping, dining, and daily conveniences. Plus, with quick, easy access to RT-16 & I-70, commutes to Newark, Zanesville, or Columbus are an absolute breeze. Properties with this blend of acreage, a massive private pond, and prime accessibility rarely hit the market! Property is in good condition, but is being sold as-is. LICKING VALLEY SCHOOLS!
