Welcome to this lovely 3-bedroom ranch! Situated on a 1-acre lot, this home has so much to offer! You'll notice the beautiful wood floors and expert craftsmanship, such as the cedar trim and all new interior doors. The spacious living room is open to the dining area with sliding door to the large deck. Most of the home has been freshly painted. The kitchen has solid wood cabinets and new stainless-steel appliances. There are 3 bedrooms that share the updated hall bath. Downstairs you'll find a finished family room with wood stove. The current owners use that to heat the entire home but there is an HVAC as well. There's brand new carpeting here as well as plenty of storage space and laundry area. This space has daylight windows and a door to the outside so that you can easily bring extra wood in. This home also includes a 2-story detached 2 car garage. The upstairs loft area is accessed from the outside and can be used as storage or easily finished for additional living space. The 1-acre lot is partially fenced to accommodate a garden or keep the dogs in--your choice! There's no HOA in this small 1 street community and this home is priced BELOW recently appraised value! Don't miss this opportunity!
