Lovingly maintained by one owner for nearly 30 years, this move-in-ready Southern Hills home shines with pride of ownership and meticulous care throughout, no projects required! With 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, there's plenty of flexible space for everyday living, overnight guests, home offices, or hobbies, plus the convenience of first-floor laundry. The finished basement offers a cozy family room and ample storage, while the attached 2-car garage makes coming home easier as winter approaches, imagine skipping the windshield scraping! Step outside to a fully fenced, low-maintenance backyard filled with mature perennials, where a deck and patio span the entire back of the house, creating plenty of room to relax and entertain. A screened-in pergola adds a welcoming outdoor retreat, and the shed offers extra storage or the potential for a fun playhouse. As a bonus, the seller is leaving the pergola, all outdoor furniture, the grill, and basement storage for the next owner. Come tour this lovely home at our open house this weekend and take in the vibrant fall colors along this friendly Southern Hills block!
