Property description
Welcome to this beautifully renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch home that's truly a hidden gem! With over 1,500 sq. ft. of thoughtfully updated living space, this home offers comfort, style, and modern convenience. The spacious master bedroom features an en-suite bath, and the fully remodeled open-concept kitchen is perfect for both cooking and entertaining. Major recent updates include new windows, siding, doors, fascia, garage door with opener, furnace and central air system, plus a freshly poured patio and updated flooring throughout. Not to mention a newly added reverse-osmosis water filtration system, and water softener. The exterior is equally impressive with well-kept landscaping and a fully fenced-in yard, making it perfect for outdoor living. The attached 1.5-car garage is insulated and drywalled for additional functionality, and the large family room features a cozy wood-burning fireplace, perfect for gatherings. Nestled on the edge of town, this home offers peaceful living while still being conveniently located. With everything already done for you, all that's left is to move in and make it your own! An excellent find and a true value!
