About This Home
As of April 2023Are you looking for that perfect 1-story home? Look no further. This timeless home has solid wood cabinetry, multiple built ins and oak hardwood floors. You just can't buy this quality of craftsmanship in this day and age. Boasting many of the qualities of yesteryear, this ranch style home consists of 3 bedrooms, 1 full and 1 half bath with attached 2-car garage all wrapped up with one level living, sitting on a full concrete foundation with paved driveway and 0.38 acres of backyard that abuts the Randall Street Park and playground! There is more than enough space to have a garden and even laying hens if you want with an 8x12 barn shaped outbuilding to house them! What a better way to have that retirement home right in town but with a country feel. A large fireplace in the living room now houses a pellet stove insert but if a cozy wood fire is what you crave, can be converted back to a wood burning fireplace or keep the convenience of a pellet stove with that same warm, toasty atmosphere and less mess. There is also a second fireplace in the bonus family room in the basement for those cold winter nights when a good game of pool, ping pong, or maybe a good old fashioned card game are in order...how about a movie night by the fire with popcorn? The possibilities are endless! Don't like being left out in the cold carrying groceries in the rain or snow? Drive right into the garage and step into your entry and into the kitchen to put them away without the hassle or worry. The entry boasts a nice sized closet for all those coats and shoes plus a separated laundry area where you do not have to bring those muddy or wet clothes into the main part of the home until they are clean and ready to be put away. Nice size rooms with closets and a large area in the basement that can be storage or an entire other living space should you choose. The only thing missing is you and your personal touch to make this house your home! More pictures to come as items are cleared out.
