1200 S Burkhardt Road

Want to be close to everything but not feel close to everything? True country-in-the-city living in this spacious all brick ranch in Evansville's highly desired Arcadian Acres. Situated on just under one half acre, on a corner lot down a no-outlet street, this beautiful mid century colonial revival style home sits back from the road with plenty of back yard left to spare. The low maintenance blacktop driveway can hold about 10 cars and delivers your guests to a charming flagstone path leading to an inset front door. Once in the foyer, the view of the large living room with its many large windows and wood burning fireplace with attractive mantle is both timeless and welcoming. Ahhh... home can be so comfortable. This room wraps around to a large dining area which makes it perfect for entertaining or just enjoying the sunlight and views from both the east and the west. It feels open, but not too open. From there, the wide galley kitchen has plenty of durable solid surface countertops, original cabinets, and an almost brand new gas stove! All kitchen appliances are included in the sale which makes your move that much easier. From there, a brightly lit hallway, with gorgeous original wood flooring, escorts you to all 3 bedrooms and both bathrooms. Both baths have had appropriate updating while preserving some of that mid century charm many buyers enjoy. The primary bedroom is an excellent size and feels like a private suite. The middle bedroom has original real wood paneling and would also make a great den, office, or study. The front bedroom is bright and cheery! All have ample closets and fantastic floors. Downstairs, an unfinished half basement is great for storage, or recreation, and can be finished out for more living space. The other half is a recently encapsulated crawlspace by Healthy Spaces which means no leaks, no smells, and no trouble! It is backed by their warranty which will transfer to the new buyer. Speaking of warranties transferring to the new buyer, you'll appreciate the roof that was replaced by StormGuard 2 years ago. Out back, the most enchanting covered porch with a very recently poured concrete patio provides even more living and entertaining space. The most adorable red shed in the back is a stylish place to store your lawn stuff. This move-in ready home offers convenience, thoughtful updates, classic details, charm, and simplicity. You found the one and you will love where you live!
