What's special

Affordable and spacious 4-bedroom ranch with a classic white picket fence sits directly across from Martin Luther King Jr. Park, offering easy access to green space right outside your front door. Living room has a unique open feel with vaulted ceilings that lead you into the dining room. The main level showcases laminate flooring throughout. Kitchen includes white cabinets, gas range, OTR microwave, and a tile backsplash. Plus, convenient access to a half bath just off the rear entry. A full hall bath serves the main level, along with four bedrooms. Downstairs, you will find a fifth non-conforming bedroom, an additional half bath, and extra space ready for your finishing touches. Outside, enjoy a generously sized back deck and an oversized two-car detached garage giving you ample room for parking, storage, or hobbies. Tons of potential so call to schedule a showing.
