About This Home
As of May 2025Nicely updated home in the rapidly growing community of Grimes. This is a 3 bedroom and 1.5 bath home. Most of the expensive updates have already been taken care of in the past few years such as the furnace, roof, water heater, kitchen appliances, some windows, concrete driveway and sidewalk, patio, basement finish, laminate flooring, light fixtures, faucets, garbage disposal, barn sliding door to the master bedroom/living room, and some sheetrock in the garage. The master bedroom is actually the living room and is currently being used as a bedroom. The wood privacy fenced yard provides a great, safe place for play and contains a pool pad for your pool and a paver patio. The gutters also have guards to make less work in the fall. This home has great access to South Prairie Elementary, the new splash pad park, as well as many other amenities, services, and restaurants nearby. The televisions and shelves in the home are reserved. Subject to finding Home of Choice.
