Solid brick ranch, beautifully updated and packed with features you don't find every day! Step inside to a gorgeous updated kitchen with quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances, a spacious living and dining area, charming arched doorway, and gleaming hardwood floors in both generously sized bedrooms. The updated bathroom keeps the fresh, move-in-ready feel going. Downstairs, the full unfinished basement is exceptionally clean and offers tons of usable space, including a bar area, laundry, and plenty of storage. Out back, you'll love the nice-sized yard and covered patio with new concrete, creating the perfect spot to relax, entertain, or enjoy the outdoors. A newer roof adds peace of mind, while the real showstopper is the oversized, heated detached garage with workshop space and room to potentially accommodate up to four vehicles. With great updates, incredible garage space, and plenty of room inside and out, this one has a lot to offer!
