About This Home

As of July 2022

This large brick ranch home is nestled in a quiet neighborhood in Altoona. It’s in a great location within walking distance of stores, restaurants, parks, and an elementary school. Walk through the new front door to find a beautiful home full of charm and character. The home offers great space with nearly 1,900 sq. ft. of finished space that includes three large bedrooms (two have double closets) and two recently-remodeled bathrooms. You are sure to enjoy the oversized master bedroom with its own private bath and a separate laundry room located directly off the master suite. The main floor has beautiful hardwood floors that run throughout the kitchen all the way to the huge family room. There is beautiful natural light throughout the house and the newly-installed Pella windows throughout the home. The lower level has been partially finished and there is still plenty of room for storage or to add more living space if needed. There is an additional finished bonus room in the basement that can provide another living space for an office or guest room. Outside features a newly refinished deck that leads to an oversized two-car garage and third full parking pad large enough for an RV or camper. The A/C and furnace were recently replaced so you’re all set for winter and summer temperatures.
