What a great location for this ranch with a water-proofed basement. You'll use the fenced yard, but also enjoy the covered patio with its own privacy wall. Hardwood floors in most rooms make this feel warm and inviting. The fresh paint makes it move-in ready and bright. Many windows have built-in shades and the front window is new. A gas fireplace in the basement makes another cozy spot, Furnace and air in 2016 (according to Lennox serial number), roof new after hail storm. One "bedroom" is used as an office due to no closet. Detached two-car garage has plenty of room for cars and lawn equipment.
