Move-in ready ranch on a half-acre lot in Shelby. $285,000 with a $10,000 closing credit for new flooring throughout at no cost to the buyer. Built in 1990 by Shelby Lumber, this home delivers space and storage that's hard to find at this price. The kitchen is generously sized with all appliances included and custom cabinetry that carries into the oversized formal dining room. The four seasons room addition is a standout - abundant windows open to let the breeze in while screens keep the bugs out. Enjoy cool Nebraska evenings without inviting the crickets inside. Two bedrooms on the main level including a primary with dual large closets, plus main floor laundry with a utility bathroom right off the garage. Downstairs, two additional large non-conforming bedrooms with full closets flank a huge family room ready for game day watch parties, a bar setup, or home theater. A full guest bath serves the lower level - 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms total. Storage and hobby space are everywhere. A shop/workspace downstairs has built-in cabinets, plus a separate storage room ideal for canning, seasonal gear, or whatever needs tucking away. The oversized two-car garage fits full-size trucks with room to spare, and a finished third-car garage addition with gas heat and built-in cabinets makes a perfect year-round workshop. Mature trees provide shade and privacy on the half-acre lot with a large driveway. A lot of home for the money - solid construction, thoughtful extras, and a closing credit to make it yours from day one!
