About This Home

As of September 2021

Welcome to easy, breezy one-level living. This adorable ranch sits on almost half an acre of beautifully landscaped property, complete with mature shrubs, garden space and cherry trees. Walk through the front door into the spacious living room with a wood-burning fireplace and hardwood floors. Beautiful wood floors continue into the formal dining area, with ample room for your guests. The adjoining kitchen welcomes you with a breakfast nook to sit and enjoy your morning coffee, along with white cabinets and granite counter tops. The master bedroom and second bedroom have hardwood floors and ceiling fans, with the full bath located conveniently in between. The flexible third bedroom would make a perfect home office as well. The large, dry basement has high ceilings and is ready for your finishing touches. Step out the back door for dinner under the awning on the patio, while enjoying the natural beauty and lush landscaping that surrounds you. The oversized 1 1/2 car garage allows for plenty of storage. If you've ever dreamed of one-level living, you'll want to see this gem of a home. Improvements include an updated kitchen and new roof in 2020.
