Property description

Sweet brick ranch with so much to love. A great option for a first-time buyer or investor, this home offers hardwood floors, updated fixtures, and a charming kitchen with a new marble counter and tile backsplash. All appliances convey, making move-in even easier. The bathroom features a double-sink granite-top vanity. Step outside to enjoy the extended concrete patio, large fenced backyard, and 12x8 storage. Conveniently located just minutes to Duke, Downtown, and nearby city parks and trails. Roof replaced in 2021, HVAC in 2016, and double-pane windows add comfort and efficiency.
