About this home

Sprawling Ranch in a great neighborhood!! This home is so much larger than it looks from the street, you will have to see it to believe it. Enormous master bedroom with and extra space for a perfect exercise area or office space and a walk out door leading to a private patio. Huge full bath with separate tub and shower with natural light gleaming through the skylight. Gigantic family room off the back of the house leading into the 3 seasons screened porch for extra space for entertaining. Beautiful hardwood floors throughout most of the home, fenced yard, and an extra 1 car detached garage for toy storage are just some of the other bonuses this home has to offer. This one won't last long so don't wait!
