About This Property
Built in 2025 and sitting on 1.12 acres of cleared land, 1854 Baber Road brings together the space, style, and outdoor living that are increasingly hard to find. This warm and inviting 3-bedroom, 2-bath home features a distinctive rich red exterior, welcoming front porch, and a massive raised rear deck designed to make the most of the surrounding acreage. Inside, the open-concept layout offers a large living room, spacious kitchen with an oversized island, and plenty of room for a full dining table, creating an easy gathering space for everyday life or entertaining. The split-bedroom floor plan gives the primary suite privacy from the secondary bedrooms. The primary suite is especially impressive, featuring a walk-in closet with built-in shelving and a luxurious bathroom finished with tile throughout. The oversized dual-sink vanity provides generous countertop space, while the massive walk-in shower offers a spa-like feel and even leaves room to add a soaking tub if desired. Step through the rear door and the outdoor living really takes over. The expansive raised deck includes a large covered section with a cathedral-style tongue-and-groove ceiling and exposed timber truss detail, creating an intentional extension of the home's living space. Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee, hosting friends, or simply taking in the open acreage, this is the kind of outdoor space that actually gets used.
