Property Description
208 Ruscomb has been freshly rehabbed and is ready for its newest owner. This 3 bedroom, 2 full bathroom home is the definition of livability. Two usable outdoor spaces, first floor bathroom, tons of closets, forced air heating and cooling, all on a tree lined, wide block. What else could you ask for? The elevated front patio is the perfect entranceway to your new home. Enter the home to find the first full bathroom immediately to you right, perfect for cleaning up the dog or kids after playtime. To the left is a conveniently placed coat closet for easy access for shoes and coat storage. Enter into the spacious living room, which flows into the dining room, and then kitchen. The kitchen is brand new with all new stainless steel appliances. Through the kitchen is your second outdoor space; a custom built deck! Much more usable than a regular yard. Upstairs, there are the three bedrooms and second full bathroom. The front bedroom is a very good size, has three nice large windows for light, and two closets. There is a hall closet between the front bedroom and the full bathroom, which has built in storage behind the tub/shower. The middle bedroom also has two closets, and the rear bedroom is a good size. The basement runs the full length of the house, is all painted and is where the laundry machines live. The entire house has been freshly painted and has new flooring throughout. As mentioned, tree lined street, central heating and cooling. Easy access to Roosevelt Blvd to get you where you want to go. Don't miss this opportunity to make this house your home!
