AFFORDABLE and RARE all-brick ranch perfectly positioned on a 1/2 acre waterfront lot at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac street. Offering a highly desirable split bedroom floor plan, this home features 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and a side-load 2-car garage with a private pool —a combination that’s increasingly hard to find.
Inside, the home opens to a massive recessed living room anchored by a wood burning fireplace and large picture window, creating an ideal space for everyday living and entertaining. A dedicated dining room adds flexibility for gatherings and special occasions. The kitchen and breakfast nook showcase natural hardwood flooring, providing warmth and timeless appeal.
The expansive primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a corner gas fireplace, large walk-in closet, private en-suite bath, and direct access to the backyard oasis. Step outside to enjoy your private in-ground pool, complete with a new liner (2023) and new cover (2024)—perfect for summer relaxation overlooking peaceful water views.
Major mechanical updates provide peace of mind with newer HVAC, hot water heater, and architectural shingle roof. The home is city compliant and offers an excellent opportunity to add personalized visual updates to truly make it your own.
Waterfront, privacy, space, and potential—3804 Tanbark delivers it all. Schedule your private showing today before this rare opportunity is gone
