Located in Winnsboro's Hunstanton neighborhood, with almost 2,100 sf of living space, plus a large heated and cooled workshop, this home is affordable, move-in ready, and full of surprises. The kitchen has been updated with newly re-faced cabinets, and there's plenty of room to cook, gather, and spread out. Just off the kitchen, a real mud room and laundry setup means muddy boots and stray backpacks finally have a home that isn't your counter. Seven steps up are three bedrooms, including the primary suite, which has everything you need. Two vanities so nobody's fighting for sink space, a separate shower plus a tub/shower combo for however you like to unwind, a walk-in closet, and a built-in dresser that means one less piece of furniture to haul in. Open the door to your own multilevel deck overlooking a yard with real room to breathe; this is where your coffee gets cold because you forgot to drink it. The second bedroom has a little surprise built in: a raised wall nook sized just right for a twin bed, plus built-in shelving that keeps the room tidy. Downstairs offers real flexibility: a living area with a masonry fireplace, a bedroom, walk-in closet, and full private bath, plus its own exterior entrance. A true flex space, perfect for game nights, get-togethers, guests, extended family, a teen hangout, or a private retreat, all with the option to come and go without passing through the main living space. Outside, the 23x23 workshop/garage with its own mini-split HVAC is ready for you to make it your own; great for hobbies, parties, side hustles, serious storage, or even as your garage! And the location isn't just convenient; it's genuinely well-placed. Fifteen minutes to the new Scout Motors plant and Cobblestone Park golf course, twenty minutes to Lake Wateree or Lake Monticello, thirty-five minutes to Columbia, and an hour to Charlotte. Close to schools, close to shopping, close enough to everything that matters.
