Property Description

Welcome to your private retreat in the heart of Johnston! Including 3 parcels, this rare 9-acre mostly wooded property offers everyday convenience — just minutes from schools, trails, shopping, and all city amenities...combined with serene views of mature timber boasting deer, turkey and other wildlife, walking trails that wind through your private woods, and plenty of open space for recreation, gardening, or keeping animals. Step inside the nearly 2,700 total finished sq ft home featuring a spacious, open layout designed for comfortable living and entertaining. The home offers 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, with a walkout lower level that expands your living space and provides easy access to the outdoors.
