Property Description
*HIGHEST AND BEST DUE 3/29 AT 7PM* Welcome home to this raised ranch that was originally built as the neighborhood model home on a corner lot! This spacious property offers 3 bedrooms on the main level plus an additional bedroom in the finished basement, along with 2 full bathrooms. The main level features beautiful hardwood floors, fresh paint throughout, and classic 6-panel doors that add timeless character. The finished basement family room includes a cozy wood-burning fireplace which has been recently serviced/cleaned, creating the perfect place to relax. The lower level also offers an additional bedroom and a full bath with a newly installed toilet, plus a second family room or flex space. You'll appreciate the lot and half with the partially fenced yard and the rare convenience of two driveways-one in front of the home and an additional side driveway leading to a detached 3-car garage, providing plenty of parking, storage, or workshop space. Numerous updates provide peace of mind, including a sewer cleanout to the street, HVAC system, water heater, garbage disposal, dryer, and a newer sump pump. The main bathroom has been refreshed with a new vanity, shower surround, toilet, flooring, and light fixtures. This move-in ready home offers space, updates, and incredible garage and parking capacity-a fantastic opportunity you won't want to miss! Home is being sold As-Is
