This charming, updated South City ranch blends classic character with modern comfort and a surprisingly spacious layout. Step inside to a warm and inviting living room featuring beautiful wood floors and natural light that sets the tone for the home. The bright, refreshed kitchen offers ceramic tile flooring, ample cabinet space, and room to cook and gather. Two comfortable bedrooms and a clean, updated full bath complete the main level.
The finished lower level adds an impressive amount of living space, including a large recreation room perfect for movie nights or a cozy lounge setup, plus a separate office or flex room ideal for working from home. You’ll also find a dedicated laundry area, a second full bathroom, and an additional sleeping area, giving you options for guests or extra storage.
Outside, enjoy an interior lot with a tidy yard and an attached 1-car garage for easy parking and convenience. With updated finishes, a functional floorplan, and quick access to all the restaurants, parks, and amenities South City is known for, this move-in-ready home is one you won’t want to miss.
