Property Description

The red siding catches your eye, but it’s the thought of making this little place your own that invites you to stay. At 261 Star Ridge Road, a bright kitchen, a cozy living room, and room to plant a few things outside offer a welcoming start to your next chapter. Built in 1915, this Canton cottage has been refreshed with new flooring, a new mini-split system, and an updated kitchen featuring new cabinets, countertops, and appliances. There’s a window over the kitchen sink where you can watch the seasons change while supper comes together, and an electric fireplace in the living room for a cozy evening with your favorite show or a good book. The 691-square-foot home includes one bedroom, one bathroom, and a bonus room connected directly to the bedroom. Picture that adjoining space as a dressing room, a reading nook with your favorite chair, or a spot for your desk and the projects you enjoy. Outside, approximately .93 acres offer a mix of yard, sloping ground, and mature trees, with mountain views and raised garden beds ready for another growing season. A few tomato plants, fresh herbs for supper, or flowers to share with a neighbor—there’s something satisfying about watching what you’ve planted take hold. A storage shed keeps garden tools and supplies close by, while a stone walkway leads from the driveway to the covered side porch. Set down your bags, take a breath, and enjoy a few minutes outside before heading in. Downtown Canton and I-40 are just minutes away, keeping everyday errands and trips out of town convenient. City water, city sewer, and an included washer and dryer add practical comforts. Whether your plans involve putting down roots or finding a smaller place to call home, this little red cottage offers updated spaces, some ground of your own, and room to bring your everyday life into the picture.
