Welcome to this beautifully updated 2-bedroom ranch that offers the perfect opportunity for first-time buyers or savvy investors looking to add a turnkey property to their portfolio. Remodeled from the studs out in 2022, this home features brand new drywall, updated water and drain lines, stylish laminate flooring, new interior doors, and all-new lighting throughout. The kitchen is a standout with custom butcher block countertops, new cabinetry, a dishwasher, disposal, and a convenient stackable washer and dryer tucked away in the fully renovated bath. Warm tongue-and-groove wood ceilings add unique character and a cozy cottage feel that sets this home apart. Major mechanical upgrades include a new metal roof (2022), new furnace (2023), and an updated electrical panel (2019)—giving you peace of mind for years to come. The exterior’s low-maintenance vinyl siding rounds out this move-in-ready gem.
Ideally located near Isham Elementary and local conveniences, this home delivers comfort, charm, and value. Whether you're starting out or investing smart, this one checks all the boxes.
