Prime location with room to spread out. Nestled directly across from Ahren’s Park and just one block from Fairview Elementary—plus the future elementary campus—you’ll have front-row seats to the community’s July 4th fireworks display. Recent upgrades make this split-level truly move-in ready: brand-new shingles, siding, gutters and driveway. The furnace and central air in 2019. The sun-lit main level features an open-concept living room, kitchen and dining area with French doors leading to a private rear patio. Upstairs are three comfortable bedrooms and a full bath. Need flexible space? The bright lower level is currently used as the primary suite, complete with walk-in closet, and an oversized bath/laundry; it can just as easily serve as a large family or recreation room. Garage lovers take note: an insulated, attached single garage pairs with a heated, oversized, two-car detached garage outfitted with shop lights, suspended heat and a workbench. Alley access provides abundant parking for extra vehicles, an RV or a trailer. If you’re looking for convenience, versatility and freshly updated curb appeal, come see this home today.
