Property Description
Located in the desirable Homestead subdivision, this well-maintained ranch home offers the perfect blend of comfort, functionality, and convenience. Set on a rare double lot with a portion already fenced in, the home offers just the right amount of privacy while still being close to town amenities. With a low-maintenance exterior and move-in-ready condition, it's a great fit for anyone seeking easy living with room to relax and entertain. Step inside to an open, welcoming layout where the eat-in kitchen flows into the main family room-perfect for both daily living and entertaining. The kitchen features plenty of space for a dining table, bar seating, and easy access to the family room. From here, sliding glass doors lead out to a Trex deck that overlooks the spacious backyard-a perfect spot for morning coffee or grilling out. Whether you're enjoying the green space or relaxing on the deck, the setting offers a quiet, backyard retreat. The thoughtful split-bedroom design gives added privacy to the spacious primary suite, which includes a walk-in closet and full en-suite bathroom. On the opposite side of the home are two additional bedrooms that share a second full bath, making this layout ideal for families or guests. Just off the oversized three-car garage is a laundry room with a handy half-bath-perfect for coming in from yard work or projects without tracking through the house. The finished lower level adds even more flexibility to this already spacious home. A large open area with daylight windows offers endless possibilities for a second living space, game room, or home theater. The built-in bar area is ideal for entertaining and pairs well with a pool table or rec room setup. You'll also find a fourth bedroom and a full bathroom downstairs-great for guests or a growing family. Even with all the finished square footage, there's still ample storage space available. This property's location combines the best of both worlds: quick access to I-39 and US-20 for commuters, and close proximity to local schools, parks, and shopping. With plenty of room to spread out both inside and out, this home is a rare opportunity in one of the area's most sought-after subdivisions.
