About This Home
As of January 2026Gorgeous move-in ready ranch awaits a new owner. Sitting at the back of a cul-de-sac, there are 5.21 acres total including rolling yard and beautiful trees. The patio in back has a hot tub and it will remain with the home. Rooms are big and the open floor plan dining room and living room are simply exquisite. Built-in bookcases by the wood burning fireplace and big bay window in the living room take your breath away. The owners have updated most of this living space in the last few years, and it is ready to move into. The main bathroom and master bathroom have been updated to the newest style and you will love it! The full partially finished basement currently is being used a rec/exercise room and a big family room with a small sink/bar/kitchen area. No walk-out to the backyard but the stairs are readily accessible to the main level. Come and see this one if you are ready to buy and move in right away. It doesn't need a thing!
