About This Home

As of November 2020

Cute ranch home on a huge lot. This one is really cute and ready to go but also has tremendous potential. Great view of the mountainside out the rear of the home. Large living room with bright bow window plus a huge bright family room/media room on the side of the home. The home also features a large eat-in kitchen with new dishwasher and lots of counter and cabinet space. There is a nice opening between the kitchen and living room giving you a very open feel. 3 bedrooms and a full bath on the main level. Large walk-up attic for storage. The 2nd level also has the potential to be one or two additional bedrooms if needed. The exterior of this home is surprisingly large and versatile. It sits on a little over 3/4 acres and has a large section fenced in with vinyl fencing. It goes well beyond the fencing in the rear of the property. There is a great spot for outdoor relaxing/entertaining with a concrete patio on the side. The property also has 2 storage sheds and there is also an area underneath the home that currently serves as a workshop. The basement is spacious and presents a tremendous amount of storage possibilities. For an alternate heat source there is a wood stove. The furnace is zoned as well. In addition to the laundry area the basement also has a 2nd full bath that does need work. The water softener is a nice addition as well. Tremendous potential! Make this home yours and add your personal touch!
