Come on home to this charming, well-maintained rambler in the desirable Meadow Park subdivision of SE Rochester. This home features an inviting main floor with updated flooring and a functional layout, anchored by a spacious kitchen boasting new countertops, sink, faucet, backsplash and appliances that flows seamlessly into the dining area—perfect for entertaining. The main level hosts three comfortable bedrooms, including a primary with a convenient half bath.
Beyond the aesthetics, this home offers true peace of mind. It comes equipped with significant mechanical upgrades, including a new hot water heater, a professional radon system, vinyl replacement windows, and a reliable sump pump with a beaver system. These thoughtful improvements ensure that the next owner can simply move in and relax without the worry of immediate maintenance.
Downstairs, you’ll find a massive second living space, a third bathroom, and an abundance of storage. The appeal extends outdoors with a generous, well-kept yard, a private patio for summer evenings, and an oversized double garage. Ideally located near schools, parks, the Mayo Shuttle and the amenities of downtown Rochester, this is a rare opportunity to own a home that is as functional as it is inviting.
