Some homes just feel right the moment you walk in — and 5526 Unity Avenue North is one of them. Well-maintained, full of character, and loaded with upgrades, this Crystal gem offers more than most homes in this price range, inside and out. Step inside and you're immediately greeted by beautiful stained woodwork throughout — the kind of craftsmanship that gives a home warmth and personality that no quick flip can replicate. With over 2,000 square feet, three bedrooms, and three bathrooms, there's room to live comfortably whether you're a family, a couple who loves having guests, or someone who simply wants space to spread out. The sellers have taken exceptional care of this home, and the updates reflect it. Updated windows and mechanicals mean you're inheriting a house that's been invested in — not one that'll need immediate attention. The maintenance-free exterior keeps your weekends free from painting and repairs, and the in-ground sprinkler system ensures your lawn stays lush and green all season long without the hassle. Out back is where this home truly shines. A huge deck anchors the outdoor space, perfect for summer cookouts, morning coffee, or simply unwinding after a long day. The fully fenced backyard is framed by mature trees that provide natural shade and privacy — a rare and coveted combination that takes decades to establish and can't be bought at a garden center. The location checks all the right boxes too. You're close to parks, lakes, and shopping, with quick and easy access to major routes that connect you to everywhere in the metro. Whether you're commuting downtown or heading to one of the area's many lakes on a summer weekend, getting there is never a problem. This is a home that's been loved and cared for, and it shows in every corner. Quick closing is available — so if you're ready to move, this one can be yours fast. Call today for a tour.
Twin Oaks, located between Bass Lake Road and County Road 81, is a residential and suburban Crystal neighborhood with curving streets and mature tree cover. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Bass Lake Road and Douglas Drive intersection, where small storefronts, service counters, and everyday errands set the tempo. Housing reads as mid-century ramblers and split-levels with tidy setbacks and attached garages. Sidewalk loops and pocket greens connect to larger fields and courts at Twin Oaks Park. The landscape stays gently level, with blocks oriented toward school grounds and park edges. Daily life centers on parks, local shops, and short drives to bigger retail corridors.
