Wow, this is the one! You will be impressed from the moment you arrive. This move-in ready ranch features incredible curb appeal with brand-new siding and sits on a generous third-acre fenced lot-the perfect outdoor oasis with a large patio for summer entertaining. Inside, the light floods into the living area, highlighting the hardwood floors that flow throughout the main level. The heart of the home is the kitchen, featuring crisp white cabinetry and stainless steel appliances. The versatile floor plan offers three comfortable bedrooms on the main level, with a spacious fourth bedroom in the basement-perfect for a guest room or private office. You will love the full bathroom in the basement, which features a relaxing jetted tub! Significant recent upgrades provide total peace of mind, including dual-zone heating and cooling with one of the sets of Furnace and A/C new in 2024, a new washing machine (2024), and several new windows (2024). The oversized one-car garage provides extra room for a workshop or storage. This home truly has it all-just move right in!
