About This Home
As of April 2025Take a second look! This spacious DSM ranch just underwent major interior detailing including new kitchen flooring, paint in many rooms, carpet cleaning, new outlets and covers, installation of missing trim work and doors. This home had an addition added many years ago, expanding the home to 1744 square feet. This house has 4 bedrooms and 2 baths plus a wide .225-acre lot. Many things have been updated over the years including the siding, HVAC, roof and water heater. Other nice features include Anderson windows, gutter guards, stainless steel appliances, hardwood floors in the original home, and a 1 car attached garage. You will appreciate the recent upgrades like a complete rewiring of the home, electrical panel, brand new dishwasher, hood and oven. There are two basement areas offering plenty of storage or room to expand. This home is being sold as is. Welcome Home!
