Overview

4897 Chestnut Drive is the kind of property buyers wait for -- a true cabin-style retreat tucked on over 2 private acres located in desirable Sherman Wood Estates in Brimfield Township. Set on a hilltop with a long wraparound private driveway, wooded property lines, and peaceful scenery, this move-in ready home blends rustic character with modern updates while offering over 2,600 square feet of living space, a cozy fireplace in the living room, 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths. Inside, you'll find warm, inviting living spaces, exposed beams, a renovated kitchen with updated stainless steel appliances that stay, updated bathrooms, newer LVP flooring throughout, fresh paint, and a flexible layout designed for both everyday living and entertaining. 4 bedrooms are on the upper level and 1 is in the basement, with a full bath located on all 3 levels. The walk-out basement adds incredible versatility with a spacious rec room/flex space, walkout access, and a fifth bedroom perfect for guests, an office or home gym. Enjoy quiet mornings on the inviting and expansive covered front porch, summer days by the 28-foot-above-ground pool with a deck and evenings relaxing on the side deck overlooking the property. An oversized 3-car garage (24x40ft/960sqft) features a tandem-style access with dual overhead doors for added convenience and functionality. Major improvements include newer septic, well pump, water softener system, propane tank (with sensors to alert when fuel is running low), metal roof, electrical panel, basement propane heater, paint and flooring, light fixtures, and much more offering peace of mind for years to come. The property includes a storage shed, chicken coop with fencing and scenic outdoor spaces that make this home feel like a private getaway while remaining conveniently located near KSU, I-76, shopping, and dining. Field LSD. Properties offering this level of privacy, character, and acreage rarely become available!
