About this home
Welcome to this spacious three bedroom, two bathroom ranch in a highly desirable neighborhood, offering approximately 3,000 square feet of finished living space and plenty of room to grow. Conveniently located near local shopping and amenities, this home offers the space, location, and flexibility you’ve been looking for. Since purchasing the home, the owners have completed numerous improvements, including installing laminate flooring throughout the upstairs living areas, addressing foundation work, and making necessary plumbing improvements in the bathrooms. These updates, along with a newer boiler and a roof less than six years old, provide a solid foundation for the next owner. The home offers comfortable one-level living with a walkout lower level that provides tremendous flexibility for additional living space, a recreation area, home office, or potential in-law accommodations. With three bedrooms and two full baths, there is plenty of room for a growing family or extended family. Heating options are another great feature, with oil heat, a pellet stove, and a wood-burning fireplace offering three ways to keep the home comfortable. Outside, you’ll find an above-ground pool, a paved driveway, and a spacious two-car garage. If you’ve been looking for a large ranch in a desirable neighborhood with room for family, entertaining, hobbies, or even extended family living, this could be the one you’ve been waiting for.
