About This Home

As of November 2025

Welcome to this truly one-of-a-kind, solidly built ranch home-offering space, character, and craftsmanship that's hard to find today. Built in 1957 by the original owner who personally oversaw every detail of construction, this home is a testament to quality and care. Set across three professionally landscaped lots, the home features 3 spacious bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a layout designed for comfort and flexibility. The expansive eat-in kitchen includes a built-in work desk and showcases bold, original design elements that stand apart from today's cookie-cutter trends-perfect for buyers who appreciate individuality and timeless style. Enjoy formal entertaining in the dedicated dining room, or cozy up by the fireplace in the generous living room. A separate den/office off the laundry and mechanical room offers even more space to work or unwind. Rich hardwood floors flow throughout much of the home, adding warmth and elegance. Outside, you'll find an attached heated two-car garage and a remarkably long driveway that accommodates up to eight vehicles-ideal for hosting or multi-car households. The park-like backyard offers privacy and space to relax or entertain. Located on a peaceful, family-friendly block just minutes from the newly opened Wind Creek Casino, this home is move-in ready and full of potential. The seller is offering a 1-year home warranty for peace of mind. Don't miss your chance to own this rare gem with unmatched value and charm.
