Don’t miss this opportunity to own a slice of history reminiscent of the nostalgia of a Norman Rockwell painting!

This two-story, 4-bedroom, 2.5 bath home is situated on a large lot with pecan trees in the front yard and an in ground, fenced in pool in the back yard. It offers home dwellers the chance to relax and enjoy a slower pace of life. The front entrance opens to gleaming hardwood floors throughout most of the home and 11’ ceilings downstairs.

A throwback in time, this town features the Red Caboose for sandwiches and ice cream, an old hardware store, a brick medical building offering homeopathic and allopathic remedies, Yesterday Café, and other unique shops. Five minutes away is Hard Labor Creek State Park, a 5,800-acre park with 24 miles of hiking and horseback riding trails, horse stalls, campsites, cabins, pristine golf course with pro club house, and a 274 acre lake offering paddling, fishing, and other amenities.
