This ranch-style home in Southwood offers a versatile floor plan with wood laminate (or wood-look tile) floors flowing through the foyer, living room, kitchen, and hearth room. The kitchen features ample storage, updated counters, subway tile backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, upscale stainless steel appliances, and room for a small dining table. The adjacent hearth room, with its cozy fireplace, can serve as a formal dining room or additional living space. Both the hall bathroom shower and ensuite bath (with a walk-in tub) have been comprehensively remodeled. The laundry room houses the furnace and water heater and provides access to the garage. The property also boasts an elaborate garden shed with electricity and a roof that is less than five years old. This home has been pre-inspected.
