This thoughtfully updated 3-bedroom, 1-bath ranch blends timeless design with modern efficiency, offering refined single-level living complemented by a 2-car attached garage and a full partially finished basement with additional living flexibility and dedicated laundry space.
Inside, beautifully refinished hardwood floors flow throughout, enhanced by a fresh, mostly updated interior palette that creates a bright, cohesive feel. Key mechanical upgrades--including a heat pump for year-round comfort, a natural gas furnace, and electrical brought fully to code--provide both reliability and peace of mind.
A pre-listing inspection has already been completed, with all recommended items addressed, allowing for a smooth and confident transition to new ownership. The home presents a strong foundation for customization, inviting the next owner to elevate the space to their personal style.
Outdoors, a spacious backyard offers room to expand your vision--whether for entertaining, gardening, or simply enjoying the setting--while the front deck will be re-stained as soon as weather allows. Solar panels with an installed inverter are already in place, offering future energy potential for those who choose to activate the system.
