for $445,000 with 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths. This 2,055 square foot home was built in 1953.
This home is much larger than it appears from the outside. This inviting brick ranch, lovingly cared for by its long-time owner, offers an abundance of space, comfort, and character. A thoughtfully designed, cedar-wood addition off the back, expands the home far beyond first impressions-creating room for both everyday living and special gatherings. Step inside and you'll find a welcoming living room filled with natural light, an eat-in kitchen with granite countertops and plenty of cabinet space, two bedrooms, and a full bath that round out the main level. The impressive addition, built with care, features two oversized bedrooms with generous closets, a large walk-in storage space, and an updated and spacious full bathroom. The showcase stairway with skylight is the centerpiece of the home, while on the lower level of the addition, a second and expansive family room has a cozy gas fireplace, offering the perfect spot for relaxing or entertaining as it combines with the living room - and direct access to the backyard. The fully finished english basement adds even more versatility, with a family room, a bonus room perfect for a home office or hobby space, another full bath, and a dedicated laundry with storage, plus bar area. Outdoors, the property shines just as brightly with well-established gardens, flourishing grapevine, and a carefully landscaped yard that reflects years of dedication and pride. The fully fenced backyard provides privacy and enjoyment, while the 2.5-car garage includes convenient second-level storage. Features, to name a few: Sump pump w/battery back up. Overhead sewer and drain tiles around perimeter. Pull down attic stairs in main house, and garage. Gorgeous hardwood floors. Fireplace for cozy nights. Lots of storage. 200 AMP electrical. Near neighborhood school and parks. From top to bottom, and within every detail - a thoughtful floor plan, and beautiful landscaping - tells the story of a home that has been well loved and meticulously maintained.
