Description

Welcome home to this solid brick 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch offering 1,495 above ground square feet of comfortable living space on a private .74-acre lot at the end of a quiet dead-end road. Built with quality and ready for your personal touches, this home offers endless potential. The spacious living room is filled with natural light from two oversized picture windows and features a cozy wood-burning fireplace as its centerpiece. A formal dining room provides the perfect setting for gatherings, while the eat-in kitchen offers everyday convenience and opens directly to the attached enclosed sun porch-an ideal place to enjoy your morning coffee while overlooking the peaceful backyard. The primary suite includes its own private bath with a walk-in shower, while two additional generously sized bedrooms provide plenty of space for family, guests, or a home office. With fresh paint and updated flooring, this well-built ranch can easily be transformed into the home of your dreams. The finished lower level expands your living space with a large recreation room complete with a bar, plus a separate hobby area perfect for crafts, woodworking, or additional storage. Outside you'll appreciate the oversized .74-acre lot offering exceptional privacy, mature surroundings, and room to garden, entertain, or simply relax. A large storage shed provides additional space for tools and equipment. Major mechanical updates have already been completed, including the roof and windows (approximately 8-10 years old), furnace, central air, and water heater (2018). A whole-house Generac generator provides added peace of mind during power outages. If you've been searching for a quality-built ranch with great bones, generous space, and the opportunity to build instant equity with a few cosmetic updates, this is one you won't want to miss!
