About This Home

545 N Colby has been loved and cared for by the same family for decades, and now it’s ready for its next chapter. This 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home sits in a prime location, backing up to the neighborhood elementary school, and offers the kind of solid construction and layout that’s hard to find at this price. Step inside and you’ll find a practical floor plan designed for everyday living. The attached garage connects directly to a drop zone/laundry area, complete with a convenient half bath and shower, plus access to the backyard patio. The kitchen features real wood cabinetry, a classic brick backsplash, and luxury vinyl flooring. Plus, the appliances stay! From there, you’ll move into a bright living room lined with windows, a cozy gas fireplace, cedar closet, and charming original details like wood paneling that tell the story of the home’s past. The full bathroom has already been updated, and all three bedrooms are grouped together along the south side of the home, offering comfort and privacy. Yes, there’s room here for your own touch, but the bones are strong, the storage is plentiful, and the layout just makes sense for today's living. Outside, the small lot means low maintenance, with space to park an RV if needed, plus a covered front porch perfect for morning coffee. Whether you’re looking for a starter home, a smart investment, or simply a place you can make your own, this one’s full of potential and heart.
