***CLASSIC UPDATED RANCH BACKING TO PARK – FINISHED BASEMENT – ONE FAMILY OWNED***
Rare opportunity to own a beautifully maintained ranch home that has been lovingly cared for by the same family since it was built. Located in a wonderful family-friendly neighborhood and backing directly to a large community park with sports courts, playscapes, walking paths, and open green space, this home offers the perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and outdoor enjoyment.
Inside, you'll find the timeless charm of a classic 1950s ranch combined with thoughtful modern updates. Original hardwood floors flow through the spacious living room and all three bedrooms, while a massive picture window fills the home with natural light. The updated kitchen features quartz countertops, custom cabinetry with convenient pull-out shelving, a deep undermount sink, and a generous dining area perfect for everyday meals and holiday gatherings.
The finished basement dramatically expands the living space with a large family room featuring recessed lighting and blackout ceilings, a second full bathroom with ceramic tile walk-in shower, an oversized laundry room, workshop area with abundant storage and workbench, and a huge bonus room with closet and sliding barn door that could serve as a home office, recreation room, guest space, hobby room, or potential fourth bedroom (no egress).
Outside, enjoy a fenced backyard, attached garage with opener and extra-wide cargo door, and access to one of the area's most desirable neighborhood amenities—the park right behind your home.
Major updates and improvements include a high-efficiency furnace, updated electrical service, glass block basement windows, newer dimensional shingle roof, and numerous interior renovations throughout.
Homes with this combination of location, condition, space, and long-term ownership history rarely become available. Don't miss your opportunity to become only the second owner of this exceptional home.
