About This Home

As of November 2024

Here lies a lovely 3 bedroom Ranch home, lovingly well-maintained & enhanced, throughout the years! Kitchen has been renovated, using majority of original Amish-made cabinetry, yet expanding certain regions with new cabinetry by Wayne Mullet, (well known) local Craftsman. Original Kitchen soffit was removed for allowing cabinetry with glass doors, to be newly installed; as were new Kitchen appliances! This gorgeous Kitchen has an excellent layout, with beautiful views out the front of the home. All lower cabinets have roll out shelves, including a built-in bread box and baking center. Dropped ceilings, in the Dining Room & Foyer, were removed to measure 8' tall; at that point, re-plastered. "L" Shaped Dining Room contains spacious Living Area upon entrance, with Dining Area rearward. 'Majority of Main flooring is Engineered Hickory. Half Bath, Side Entry & Laundry Room are Tiled flooring. Former Dining Room, has been transformed into a 3rd Bedroom, with newly enhanced door, containing distressed glass, for light to pass thru yet gives privacy, from the other side. 'Former screened-in porch has been transformed into a now windowed, lovely 3 Season Porch; with slider onto a covered Patio. Enjoy those spectacular southern views, from here! Substantial Laundry Room, on Main floor, contains a folding counter, Pantry Closet with built-in shelving & Laundry Sink, with upper cabinets. Den provides 13' stone Fireplace, 13' Mantle, Display Shelving & Cabinet. Partially open stairway leads from side entry door to finished Basement area, which includes sizeable Brick Fireplace, a "60's" built-in Bar, complete with counter, 'fridge, cabinetry & Bar Sink. Storage Room, just off bar area, contains large built-in cabinet. 'Other half of basement provides excellent storage, with built-in shelving (metal shelves DO NOT stay. Oversized 2 stall Garage distributes Heat & Air, pull-down stairs to the attic (screens stored here) separate enclosed storage area, with peg board for hanging tools, & floor drain under each car space. The layout inside this home, delivers the ultimate privacy to bedrooms & main bath. Master Bedroom furnishes 2 large closets, yet Master Bath. This pretty as a picture home was strategically situated on this lot, to take advantage of beautiful Sunrises & Sunsets. Views out back are of rolling farmland to the south, as far as you can see! Sit on the covered porch & view those 3 gorgeous flowering backyards (all meticulously manicured), while leisurely sipping your favorite beverage. 'Also beautiful views out the many large mid century corner windows; from here you'll clearly view the Elementary School (1 1/2 blocks away) from the foremost, of this stately structure! Enjoy these views from the porches, entertain your guests, or just bask in the solitude, out back; this adorable abode provides, for multitudes of enjoyment to be had! Stove, Dryer & Metal Shelving in Basement, Orange Globe Light in 3rd bedroom, & old 'fridge in basement (if buyer doesn't want) DO NOT stay with home. Appliances sold as is.
