Fresh and ready for its next owner, this charming rancher offers easy living with updates to its classic main level floor plan. From the moment you enter the foyer from the new front door, you'll appreciate the care and vision the sellers have given this house. The living room is bright with a picture window, and the kitchen and dining room have been opened up to give more space for each. The updated and expanded kitchen features maple cabinets, granite counters, a stainless steel farmhouse sink, and updated stainless steel appliances incuding a gas range. You'll be planning where to put the grill and the volleyball net as soon as you see the patio and backyard! Throuhgout the main level, new carpet is over hardwood floors in good condition. The primary bedroom has its own full bathroom that's been updated. Secondary bedrooms share the full hall bathroom, also updated with a white-tiled tub-shower combination and grey vanity. The finished area of the lower level, remodeled with drywall and carpet, has a spacious family room ready for playtime, cedar closet, and half bath. Also downstairs is the laundry area, workshop, storage, and a great area for your exercise equipment that could be further finished with additional uses as an office or hobby room. More storage for outside gear and tools is included in the carport area. The roof was replaced in 2021. The fireplace and chimney convey as is. A homebuyers warranty is provided for the buyers.
