Property Description
Unpack, settle in and start enjoying your new home! This move-in-ready Watseka ranch has already received many of the updates buyers hope to find. With approximately 1,280 square feet, 2 bedrooms, 1 bath and a full basement, there's more here than first meets the eye. Start mornings with coffee on the covered front porch, then head inside to sun-filled living spaces, warm flooring and an easy-flowing layout. The updated kitchen gives you loads of cabinetry and countertop space, while the adjoining dining area is wrapped in natural light. There's also an updated bath and the convenience of main-level laundry. Behind the good looks is an impressive list of improvements: newer flooring, kitchen, bath, fixtures, wiring, plumbing, windows, furnace, central A/C and water heater. And with a 109' x 161' lot, mature trees and plenty of green space, there's room to enjoy life outside, too. Updated. Comfortable. Move-in ready. Welcome home to 472 E. Cherry St.
