Property Description
This beautifully updated rancher sits on a spacious, fully fenced double lot, offering both privacy and room to expand. Thoughtfully improved by the current owners, the home features a newly added foyer and a relocated front door, creating a more open and inviting living room. A charming front porch roof was added, and the roof over the kitchen and bathroom was redone - all completed in April 2025. The home was converted to central heating and air conditioning in August 2024, including a new furnace. Termite treatment was also completed at that time for added peace of mind. Inside, you'll find modern laminate flooring throughout - installed just a year and a half ago - and all appliances are only a few years old, making this home truly move-in ready. Location is another standout feature - the property is within walking distance to Pleasant Hill Park and just a short drive to Trumbette Playground and Fluehr Park, offering plenty of outdoor recreation options nearby. With its thoughtful updates, generous lot size, and desirable location, this home is a rare find you won't want to miss! The recent price adjustment reflects the addition of a downstairs powder room and an 8x10 shed in the backyard!
