Extremely well maintained over the years, this 3- bedroom ranch showcases true pride of ownership from the original owner since 1969. The main floor features an eat-in kitchen and a spacious mudroom addition with a convenient half bath, ideal for everyday living. Hardwood floors under carpet in LR, hall & BR's! Enjoy peace of mind with a newer furnace, air conditioner, hot water heater, brand-new roof, and a whole-house generator. Southern-facing for abundant natural light, the home also offers an oversized 2-car garage (assessor has wrong measurement, believed to be 24x30) and a huge backyard with a private view perfect for relaxing or entertaining. A composite decking front porch adds a great place to relax. Conveniently located close to the interstate and just 15 minutes to downtown, this lovingly cared-for home is a rare opportunity.
