About This Home
This is the one! You’re going to fall head over heels for this adorable 3 bedroom home in the Merle Hay neighborhood. When you enter the home, you’ll notice the original hardwood floors that run through the hallway and continue into the 2 downstairs bedrooms, maintaining the character you should feel in a 50’s home. However, as you move into the kitchen, bathroom, and family room, you won’t have to feel like you’re actually living in the past. These spaces have been perfectly updated for today’s needs, with a style that blends seamlessly into the original character. Upstairs you’ll find the spacious primary bedroom, your own personal retreat. Outside the modern touches continue with an oversized 2 car garage and a fully fenced yard. A wrap-around back porch makes it easy to enjoy those lazy summer days. Make a plan to see this one before it’s gone.
