Located not far outside of Arcanum, this 3-bedroom home has a bonus living space, enclosed porches, large decks, fenced yard, an attached, two-car garage, a barn, a detached one-car garage and a concrete driveway all on 15.36 acres of land.
Listed for $284,900 by Better Homes and Gardens Big Hill Real Estate, the frame-and-vinyl home at 1992 Littles Road has about 1,500 square feet of living space on a full, unfinished basement. The house sits well off the road with a mature treeline to the back of the house. There are 11 acres of tillable land and one acre of woods plus the 3.39 acres that surround the house. A concrete driveway leads to the attached garage while a gravel drive leads to the 60-by-26-foot barn and one-car, detached garage. The back yard is fenced and has a wooden deck.
Formal entry opens into an enclosed porch with screened windows. The front door opens directly into the living room, which has a wood-burning fireplace as its centerpiece. The fireplace has a wood mantel and ceramic-tile hearth. Wood laminate flooring fills the living room and continues into the bedroom, bathroom and kitchen.
Off the living room is a full bathroom with a whirlpool tub and shower, a pedestal sink and linen closet. The first-floor bedroom is accessible from a hallway and has access to the full bath.
An arched opening from the living room leads to the kitchen, which has a wall of maple cabinetry that was installed in 2015. A window is above the sink and the kitchen comes equipped with a range, dishwasher and refrigerator. There is a walk-in pantry closet
A hallway leads from the kitchen to the bedroom and a second full bathroom, which has a ceramic-tile surround tub/shower. A door opens off the hallway to the basement staircase where the laundry hook-ups are located. A second door opens to the hidden staircase to the upstairs where there are two bedrooms, storage and a bonus room. Both bedrooms have closets, side windows and wood laminate flooring.
One bedroom has built-in drawers. A door off the landing opens to two steps down to a bonus room above the enclosed front porch. The room is large enough for a hobby area, has closet storage, a vinyl window and a pitched ceiling.
Back on the main level, off the kitchen is a family room with two picture windows and a wall of built-in bookcases for an entertainment center. Access to the garage is off the family room as well as a covered deck.
