Rarely will you find a value add, solid all brick raised ranch on the highly desirable southwest side, and this is a home you will not want to overlook this amazing home! This home provides the charming, raised ranch feel while blending character and charm with an amazing layout! The moment you walk into the large sun-drenched living room you will love the hardwood floors which flow throughout the home!
