About This Home

As of February 2025

This charming 3-4 bedroom home is designed to meet the needs of any homeowner.

The fully-appliance kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, ample counter space, and recent upgrades, including new countertops, a sink, faucet, plumbing, and valves. The dishwasher is just a year old. With its many windows, this cheerful, well-lit kitchen is the perfect space for casual meals. The first-floor master bedroom has been completely updated, boasting new drywall, carpeting, windows, and electrical outlets. The en-suite master bath is brand new, featuring all-new plumbing, a toilet, vanity, drywall, and a stylish ceramic tile shower. Two additional bedrooms are located on the main floor, along with a second full bath that includes new laminate wood flooring, a toilet, a pedestal sink, a vanity, and a mirror-all completely updated. The cozy family room highlights a stunning gas stone fireplace and convenient outside door access, perfect for unloading groceries from the detached garage. The four-season room, enclosed with windows, is equipped with heat and air conditioning, making it an ideal year-round retreat. Upstairs, a large attic space offers flexibility as an additional bedroom, office, or playroom. Car enthusiasts will be thrilled by the expansive 1,296 sq. ft. detached garage, capable of holding 4 to 6 vehicles. This heated and air-conditioned space is fully equipped with a 9,000-lb vehicle lift, motorcycle lift, 60-gallon 155 PSI air compressor, wash tub, overhead storage with a 3-ton cable lift, and numerous shelves and cabinets. The garage also includes a gas water heater, electric door opener with transmitters, and even a half bath. With dual access-an upgraded cement driveway from the street and a rear entry from the city alley-this garage is both functional and convenient. Situated on a deep 181-ft lot, this home is freshly painted and move-in ready. It's located within walking distance to schools, shopping, medical facilities, recreational venues, and convenient access to I-88. Don't miss the opportunity to make this exceptional home your own!
