About This Home

As of August 2020

This home is like a fine wine, it just gets better with age. Remarkably well cared for by only 2 owners since it was built in 1948 this 2,774 sq ft home, in the heart of Richland, is immaculately cared for and will not disappoint. There are two cozy, wonderfully painted bedrooms and 3/4 bathroom with tiles walk-in shower and radiant heat on the main level and 2 additional large bedrooms and full bathroom in the basement. Beautifully refinished original hardwood floors, open kitchen with bar with upgraded solid-surface counter tops, large dining room, and perfect little reading room makes this home warm and welcoming with plenty of room to entertain, enjoy family time, or just relax. Don't like stairs? No problem; there is a stackable washer and dryer upstairs and full laundry room with utility sink downstairs along with a wine cellar, just across from an indoor large shop area. In addition to the large living room with a lot of wonderful natural lighting on the main level, there is another family room with surround sound and free-standing propane stove and engineered wood flooring downstairs, making the lower level just as amazing as the main level. Large kitchen with many cupboards, buffet-style counter area, updated stainless-steel appliances including built-in trash drawer and sink that overlooks a very private fenced backyard with BBQ area, hot-tub (negotiable), garden area, UGT sprinkler system, and storage shed, make this home a must-see. Current owners care so much about its condition and ensuring the buyer(s) are just as comfortable and happy with the home, that they had a pre-sale inspection completed and have already fixed the very few issues identified; $350 savings for any buyer. Vinyl double-pane windows, central HVAC, shingle roof, electrical and plumbing all in excellent condition, but owner will still offer 1-year home warranty.
