One-owner ranch home located in a desirable area near the Wolcott line, offering convenience and potential. Minutes from shopping, a public park, and major highways, this home combines a great location with solid construction. While some minor updating is needed, the home has excellent bones and plenty of opportunity to make it your own. The main level features a welcoming living room with a fireplace, a dining room with a pass-through to the kitchen, and a spacious eat-in kitchen with a door leading to the deck-perfect for indoor-outdoor living. Three bedrooms and a full bath with laundry complete the main level. The walk-out lower level provides over 700 square feet of heated living space with abundant natural light, a second fireplace, and a full bath, making it ideal for a family room, recreation space, or home office. A large utility room includes a framed area with the potential to add even more finished square footage. Additional highlights include a roof approximately 7 years old or newer, a carport, and a private backyard that backs up to woods for added privacy. A wonderful opportunity in a sought-after location.
