About This Home

As of January 2023

This lovely ranch located in the NW corner of Marengo will impress you with the sweet character of original hardwood floors and built-ins in combination with the updated kitchen and first floor family room with fireplace. Situated on a large corner lot, this home has had only two owners since being custom built in 1953 and shows the care it has been given over the years through the well-maintained interior and exterior. So much storage throughout with attention to detail from the custom French door closets with drawers and shelving and each with its own light switch.The main bathroom offers a walk-in shower and a half bath off of the kitchen and garage entry is convenient. Replacement windows throughout the home offer beautiful natural lighting in every room. Enjoy the breakfast nook overlooking the backyard in addition to the space in the formal living/dining room with large picture window at the front of the house. The wood burning fireplace nestled in all of the original wood built in shelving and cabinets is ready to be put back to use during those cold winter days. The basement is unfinished with potential to entertain guests on one side and use the kitchenette-like space on the opposite side where the original owner canned vegetables. The workshop area in the basement and access to the garage is perfect if you are looking for a room for supplies and tools for woodworking or crafting hobbies. Corner lot with gorgeous, mature yard with perennials and shade trees. Attached and insulated garages with room for 3 vehicles plus your toys. The backyard shed is original to the property and is great for lawn care storage or just adding charm to the extra large yard. You're going to love it!
