Property description
Check out 1704 Merle Hay Rd! Not Merle Hay near the mall, but Merle Hay in the sweet spot near the intersection of Franklin. You could walk to Simon's for a delicious culinary experience! This charming home has undergone quite the transformation! With professionally done interior paint throughout (2026) it's so fresh and SOOO bright! You'll enjoy the large eat in kitchen with quartz counters and soft close cabinetry, HUGE fully fenced backyard, big deck, so much natural light, dry basement with no crazy walls, newer driveway (great way to build some equity), new beautiful Pella backdoor with built in shade (2025), etc. Some little extras like Nest thermostat and keypad entry. It's an incredible value for the location, school district, features and space. Plus it's just adorable! Come experience it for yourself!
