About This Home
Rare opportunity for country-style living in the heart of Birchwood. This move-in ready 3-bedroom rambler sprawls across a private 1/2-acre oasis, with an updated open kitchen, refreshed baths, and a primary with ensuite. A spacious bonus room offers flexible space for office, play, guests, or media. Outside, enjoy a fully fenced yard with fruit trees, mature landscaping, room for games and gatherings, plus additional covered storage for tools and toys. The heated shop is ideal for ADU conversion, hobbies, projects, or gear, with ample off-street parking for vehicles/trailers. New furnace for comfort and efficiency. Regs allow for up to two ADUs, plus future zoning likely to add even more density (buyer to verify). This one is all upside!
