Complete renovation in this immaculate peaceful Ranch home with full basement. Wonderful private backyard and oversized two car garage. Enter the home in the large family room that has an unobstructed view to a spacious kitchen with loads of cabinets. Stainless appliances and refrigerator new in 2021. Kitchen fan new 2021. New Luxury Vinyl Flooring throughout the first floor is easy to care for and waterproof which is great for family, friends, and pets. The first floor includes the hall bathroom with Corian counter and small ceramic tiled flooring. Freshly painted and fiberglass surround in shower for easy care. Two spacious bedrooms and an ample sized master bedroom finish this floor. Heading to the finished basement, this house continues to impress. An office/flex room is available for many options. It includes a spacious closet for storage and room for shelving and more. Don't miss the recently refinished family room/rec room /kid's zone, a man's space...anything can be imagined. Another unfinished half of the basement is behind the door with a large laundry area and additional storage. But don't stop here, the backyard is the highlight. A gorgeous area of exterior enjoyment; garden update 2019, deck extensions and overhang built 2019, brick stairs 2023, brick Fire pit 2023. The buyer will have many Spring, Summer, and Fall fun experiences here. Better hurry! A Ranch home with these amenities and this location won't last.
Solid ranch style house with detached garage. Open floor plan. 3 bedrooms on main level with 4th bedroom in basement. Wood deck in rear looks out to fenced backyard. May need some updating.
