This home has had a complete makeover in the last year. Carpet was removed and new flooring put in. Hardwood floors in 2 bedrooms were uncovered. New carpet in living room and master bedroom. A thorough and complete cleaning of the entire house. The tired-looking brick fireplace has an updated look and a new grate. New light fixtures. All electric outlets upgraded, with grounds and GFCI's where required. It now has 3 bedrooms again, as a wall was replaced. 2 full baths. Lots of built-in storage throughout. This is not one to overlook. The family room/dining area that are open to the kitchen; all with updated waterproof vinyl plank flooring. Bathrooms also have the waterproof plank and new toilets. Ceiling fans. Exterior painted and new shutters added. A big 2 car garage with extra storage space and workbench area. It is located in a flood plain, but no evidence of ever having water. Take a peek at the pictures and make your appointment to see it! **Seller may consider a contract sale. Call for more information.

Bought with Tim Smith• Smith's Real Estate Services,
This nice rambling ranch has a lot of space. Originally a 3 bedroom house, an extra doorway was created and the 3rd bedroom has been used as both a formal dining room and an office. Could easily be a 3 bedroom again. The split floor plan has the master away from the other bedroom areas. Lots of nice solid wood cabinetry in the kitchen, solid surface corion counters, with a gas cooktop and built-in oven. All appliances will stay, along with the washer and dryer, which are located in the laundry/mudroom that has abundant storage and is just inside the garage. Formal living room and a big family room that also shares a space for an informal dining table. Wood burning fireplace has never been used. 2 full baths with lots of storage. There is original hardwood floors under some of the carpeting. The garage is and extra big 2 car, with heat. The attic is floored for storage. An extra built-in stove and freezer in the garage will stay. Water softener is rented. Whole house fan and central air. Thermal pane windows. Storage shed in backyard. Small patio outside back door. This is in the flood plain but has never had water.
