About This Home

As of December 2023

Very cute and well maintained home in Ephrata. This ranch home is perfect if you are looking for all one-floor living. Large bright living room and huge eat-in kitchen. Plenty of cabinets and work space in the kitchen. The sliding glass door brings in a ton of natural light. Amazing view! There is a nice deck with stairwell that overlooks the large yard. Huge rear yard that is fully fenced and has a large shed with electricity. Two bedrooms and full bath on the main level. Third bedroom and a cute family room on the lower level. The lower level family room also has a propane stove for an additional heat source. (the tanks are owned) The basement also has a large workshop area that could be finished or provide a ton more storage. There is a sliding glass door on the lower level that brings in plenty of light and provides easy access to the yard. Did you notice that there is a stairwell accessing the basement from the rear of the garage? This is a nice addition and allows for another easy way to access the lower level. This home has a 1-car garage and a few off-street parking spaces. Super location. This home sits in a quiet part of the neighborhood but is close to all the special amenities of Ephrata.
