About this home
Let's Welcome to this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 1 full-bath ranch situated on a desirable corner lot w/ an oversized detached garage. This home offers comfortable one-level living with plenty of storage space. Enjoy outdoor entertaining on the brand-new deck and fenced-in yard, both completed in 2025, providing privacy and the perfect space for gatherings. The walkout basement features exterior access through newly installed doors and offers additional finished rooms, ideal for a home office, recreation area, and/or gym. A second full bathroom is located in the basement. New roof was installed a few years back along with solar panels for enhanced energy efficiency. Siding is brand new. The central air conditioning condenser is only four years young, providing peace of mind and comfort during warmer months. Combining functional living space and a prime corner-lot location, this ranch is one you won't want to miss!
