Property Description

This 1950's ranch will charm the socks off you. Sitting at the end of a cul-de-sac, it offers a peaceful retreat that is still a hop-skip to all the downtown action. A vibrant pollinator garden greets you at the curb, leading the way to a sweet, covered front porch. Step inside to an easy, open layout with high ceilings, updated flooring, lighting & modern kitchen. Two bedrooms and 1.5 baths are tucked down the hall, filled with natural light thanks to plentiful replacement windows. And, while the inside is lovely and cozy...the true heart of this home might just be the oversized screened porch-325 square feet of versatile space overlooking what could arguably be the most private backyard this close to downtown. Whether you're lounging, entertaining, catnapping (human and furry), snacking, remote working, beverage sipping, birdwatching, or plant tending, this porch can handle it all. It's genuinely something special. And the yard? Let me tell you-it's fully fenced, wrapped in mature trees, with the greenest grass, a perfect patio for your firepit, and glorious garden spaces to dig into. If you have four legged friends, dream of backyard parties, or just enjoy a little peace and greenery, this space delivers in spades. Bonus points for the classic carport, complete with original 1950s breeze block-heart eyes for all you midcentury lovers! A total package at this price point, you might as well keep those socks off and stay awhile.
