    What's special

    Central airFull main bathRich hickory flooringAttractive countersOversized detached garageGreat prep spaceKitchen offers ample cabinetry
    Welcome to 1740 Corning Avenue! This charming, move-in ready ranch delivers easy single-story living with exceptional versatility. Step inside to find rich hickory flooring extending through a bright, open living room filled with natural light from the large front window. The kitchen offers ample cabinetry, attractive counters, and great prep space. The layout features three comfortable bedrooms and a full main bath, designed with wonderful adaptability: the third bedroom features sliding glass doors opening to the backyard, allowing it to easily flex as a dedicated dining room, home office, or secondary sitting room. Just beyond the sliders awaits an expansive screened-in porch—a fantastic three-season retreat for morning coffee or relaxing, bug-free evenings. Downstairs, the full, clean basement provides 864 square feet of potential for future finish, recreation, laundry, and extensive storage. Outside, you’ll find a fully fenced backyard framed by mature shade trees, an oversized detached garage, and a concrete driveway. Major improvements bring total peace of mind: a brand-new roof is scheduled to be installed on both the house and garage, along with new windows throughout most of the home. In addition, following a recent hailstorm, the west side of the home will receive brand-new siding, and the sellers have elected to complete the exterior transformation with new siding and a new overhead door on the garage. Complete with updated electrical service and central air, this Waterloo home is truly turnkey and ready for its next chapter!
