Property Description
Nothing to do but move right into this meticulously maintained and beautifully updated 4-bedroom, 1.5-bath ranch, where comfort, convenience, and modern updates come together perfectly. Designed for effortless one-level living, this move-in-ready home offers a versatile floor plan, spacious rooms, and an impressive list of recent improvements-all on a quiet street close to schools, shopping, area amenities, and interstate access. Beautiful landscaping and an extended driveway provide wonderful curb appeal and additional parking for family and guests. Step inside to a spacious front room filled with natural light that offers endless possibilities. Currently used as the dining room, it could easily serve as a formal living room or a combination living and dining space to suit your needs. The beautifully remodeled kitchen is truly the heart of the home, featuring newer cabinetry, countertops, flooring, and a custom-built table that's perfect for enjoying your morning coffee, casual meals, or catching up with family and friends. Just beyond, the inviting sunroom-currently used as the family room-offers a cozy place to relax while overlooking the private, fully fenced backyard. Conveniently located off the kitchen, the first-floor laundry and utility room provides direct access to the oversized 2.5-car tandem garage, offering exceptional space for vehicles, storage, hobbies, or a workshop. Down the hall, you'll find four comfortable bedrooms. One is perfectly suited as a home office or nursery, while the oversized bedroom provides endless possibilities as a spacious primary retreat or a shared bedroom. The remaining bedrooms are generously sized, and the primary bedroom features its own updated private half bath with a custom vanity. Step outside to enjoy the peaceful, fully fenced backyard-an ideal setting for entertaining, gardening, pets, or simply relaxing after a long day. Recent improvements provide peace of mind and include new flooring throughout, fresh paint, a beautifully remodeled kitchen, updated bathrooms, trim, interior doors, front door, sliding patio door, and a tankless water heater (2023-2024). Additional updates include professional landscaping (2022), privacy fence (2019), extended driveway (2016), windows (2007), and roof (2010). The washer and dryer will also remain with the home. Thoughtfully updated from top to bottom and meticulously cared for throughout, this exceptional ranch offers the perfect opportunity to simply unpack, settle in, and enjoy all it has to offer.
