About This Home
**This move-in-ready 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers an outstanding combination of condition, space, location, and value that's hard to find at this price point.** Located in the heart of Rockton, don't let the exterior fool you—the interior offers far more living space than you'd expect, along with an inviting setting positioned a comfortable distance off the road. The deep backyard provides plenty of room to relax or entertain, while thoughtfully removed mature trees create the perfect balance of sunshine and shade. Inside, the open living and dining rooms create a bright, welcoming layout ideal for everyday living and gatherings. The enclosed breezeway, surrounded by windows overlooking both the front and backyard, adds versatile living space perfect for morning coffee, reading, or entertaining guests. The basement, conveniently accessed through the breezeway, provides abundant storage space for seasonal items, hobbies, and household essentials. The kitchen features attractive white cabinetry, a gas range approximately three years old, garbage disposal, dishwasher, and refrigerator. The oversized full bathroom offers convenient main-floor laundry, a large vanity, and additional closet space, while a second bathroom is located just off the kitchen. The primary bedroom features sliding glass doors leading to a spacious deck overlooking the fully fenced backyard. Outside, you'll also appreciate the 11⁄2-car garage, new concrete driveway (2023), six-year-old garden shed, and low-maintenance vinyl siding. Major updates include many vinyl replacement windows (2009), furnace (2014) with Aprilaire whole-house humidifier, central air conditioning (2010), water heater (2014), and an approximately eight-year-old roof. Enjoy all that Rockton has to offer with downtown shopping, local dining, parks, Music in the Park, and schools just minutes away.
