About This Home

As of August 2025

Come home to 215 E Parker St, a warm and welcoming raised ranch with 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths, filled with the kind of charm and space that invites you to stay a while. Set on just over a third of an acre, this home offers the quiet comfort of small-town living with quick interstate access when you need to get away. Imagine stepping into a cozy living room where the sunlight pours in, then moving into the eat-in kitchen, where meals become memories and the door opens to a peaceful deck and a wide patio-perfect for sipping your morning coffee or hosting summer barbecues. The main level includes two bedrooms and a full bath, making everyday living simple and easy. Downstairs, the spacious lower level creates a flexible retreat-ideal for movie nights, game time, or quiet evenings curled up with a book. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath on this level offer privacy and comfort, whether you're welcoming guests or setting up your dream hobby room or home office. An efficiency kitchen has been added to the lower level. The laundry and utility room has plenty of space to keep everything neat and organized. The heated two-car garage is extra deep, perfect for weekend projects or storing all your outdoor gear. Step outside to discover one of this home's most standout features-a huge backyard that's just waiting to come to life. Whether you imagine a garden in full bloom, a play area under the open sky, or cozy evenings gathered around a firepit, this yard is your blank canvas. There's even a 12x15 shed ready for your tools, toys, or seasonal decor. Recent updates provide peace of mind, including a new roof in 2020, new HVAC system in 2021, brand new LeafGuard gutter guards, and a new sump pump-ensuring the home stays dry, clean, and low-maintenance. Extensive plumbing work has also been updated in the home. With nearly 1,900 square feet of finished living area and outdoor space that invites connection, creativity, and calm, this is more than just a house-it's where your next chapter begins.
