About This Home
As of November 2024Welcome to 503 Ruxton Drive, where convenience meets timeless charm! Step inside, and you'll find beautiful hardwood floors leading to a bright formal living room with a large picture window, a spacious dining room, and an inviting eat-in kitchen that opens up to a sunny Florida room. The finished lower level, complete with a full bath, walk-in closet, and its own private entrance, offers endless possibilities—whether you’re looking for an in-law suite, a home office, or a guest space with added privacy.
Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms, all featuring those same gorgeous hardwood floors. The well-maintained bathrooms have a nostalgic, vintage charm that's hard to find these days.
The outdoor space is just as impressive. Enjoy your morning coffee on the covered front porch or host a gathering on one of the two brick paver patios or the screened-in porch. With two cozy wood-burning fireplaces, a spacious tree-lined yard, and a two-car garage, this home perfectly balances character and convenience.
Beyond the home, the location offers even more. You’re just minutes from the scenic trails and lush gardens of Rockwood Park, along with the concerts, programs, and outdoor adventures at Bellevue State Park. This isn’t just a home—it’s a lifestyle. Opportunities like this don’t come around often—schedule your showing before it’s gone!
