Country Comfort With Room to Roam! This 3-bedroom, 2-bath brick ranch is just what you've been looking for. The full-length front porch welcomes you with a swing, while a colorful front door invites you inside. The living room features a wood-burning fireplace and opens to the generously sized dining area and kitchen, complete with an electric range, microwave, dishwasher, and refrigerator. All three bedrooms are conveniently located on the main level. The primary suite includes a private bath, while the two additional bedrooms share a full hall bath. Downstairs, the basement den offers additional living space with a cozy wood-burning stove. You'll also find plenty of storage in the unfinished basement area, which includes both a standard exterior door and a garage door for easy access to the fenced backyard. The outdoor space is just as inviting. Situated on just over an acre, you'll find raised garden beds, blueberry, blackberry, and elderberry bushes, walnut trees, a brick patio, and a covered deck with a ceiling fan that can be accessed from the backyard or directly from the dining area. A main-level 2-car garage and oversized driveway provide plenty of parking, while new windows installed in 2023 and gutter guards add everyday convenience. Whether you enjoy gardening, entertaining, or simply having room to spread out, there's room here to do it all.
