About This Home

Charming ranch bungalow in convenient location directly across from MacRae Park! Step inside and you’ll find the main level offers two bedrooms (one with a walk in closet), a 3/4 bathroom, spacious family room and dining area with coved ceilings right off the galley kitchen with all appliances included. On the main level there is back room off of the kitchen and pantry that makes for a great drop zone with back door from driveway and detached garage. The main level is rounded out with a heated and cooled enclosed front porch which would make a perfect home office or hobby space (and adds 144 SqFt of space not included in the listing). There is plenty of storage with unfinished basement and 14x21 detached garage. Updates include: Furnace/Air Conditioner/Hot Water Heater updated in 2024, electrical updates in 2010, mostly Vinyl Windows. All of this wrapped up in a convenient location close to downtown, bike trails, schools, and directly across from MacRae Park featuring a playscape, tennis courts, walking trails, fishing pond, and more!
