Big price improvement for a quick sell! 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom home in desirable Brookbend! This property boasts fantastic curb appeal with maintenance-free vinyl siding and brick accents, plus a convenient double driveway offering off-street parking for at least four cars. A thoughtful concrete safety ramp leads from the driveway to the front door. Step inside to the main entry, which opens into a bright living room featuring a cathedral ceiling, coat closet, and an open staircase. Natural light floods in through a large picture window flanked by two double-hung windows, perfect for fresh air. To the left, the kitchen offers ample light and a side exit to a spacious 28x16 deck, ideal for fall BBQs or simply relaxing while overlooking the backyard. Downstairs, discover a versatile space currently configured as two additional bedrooms, though it can easily be converted back into a family room. This level also features a cozy gas fireplace with a brick accent wall, a half-wall perfect for decor, and convenient access to storage and the utility/laundry room. Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms, each with ample closet space and abundant natural light. A linen closet in the hallway completes the second floor. The backyard is a true highlight, offering plenty of room to spread out and relax. It includes a large shed for extra storage and mature trees and bushes for privacy. While this home is sold as-is and needs a touch of TLC to truly shine, its potential is undeniable.
