Property Description
This fully refreshed country-meets-convenience home sits on two unincorporated lots, offering the freedom buyers love-yes, chickens welcome-with the city just minutes away. Inside, nearly everything has been updated: new flooring, baseboards, paint, doors and hardware, lighting, countertops, appliances with a 1-year warranty, five new windows, and a completely redone kitchen and bathrooms with new plumbing, vanities, fixtures, tile, showers, drywall, and all new copper water lines, plus a main-level laundry with sink and a new front entry door. The basement adds peace of mind with a new water softener, sump pump, and water heater, while outside you'll appreciate new siding, gutters, exterior lighting, garage door, and newer roofing in key areas. Heating and cooling systems are under five years old and professionally serviced. A 2-car detached garage, wide open space, and true elbow room make this a practical, no-nonsense property that delivers privacy, functionality, and modern updates-country living without giving up access to everyday essentials.
