Owned by the same meticulous owner for over 40 years, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath beauty is as immaculate as it is updated-and it's ready for its next chapter. Step inside and you'll immediately notice the pride of ownership throughout. From the recently remodeled kitchen-complete with granite countertops, stylish cabinetry, and easy-to-love neutral flooring-to the brand new windows throughout the entire home (yes, all of them!), every corner has been thoughtfully improved over the last 5-6 years. Need extra space? The fully finished basement is a standout feature. It's perfect for hosting large family gatherings, thanks to a second full kitchen, a full bath, and a versatile bonus room that works great as a home office, playroom, or guest space.

New roof, gutters, on both the home and garage (2018) and attic insulation (2018), central air and furnace are 10 years young and maintained yearly. Even a new wall heater in the basement to keep things cozy year-round. Water heater /hot water tank is 2 years old. Outside, you'll love the private backyard and patio area-perfect for BBQs or simply unwinding. Plus, there's a 2-car garage with lots of extra storage space. With neutral finishes throughout, this home is move-in ready and waiting for your personal touch. Don't wait-homes this well cared for don't stay on the market for long. Come see it for yourself-your future home in Garfield Ridge is calling.
