Great opportunity for homeownership! This ranch style home features hardwood floors, extra flex space that could be a dining room, den or office, finished family room in the lower level and a double level deck off the kitchen area. Located North of Douglas Ave on 48th Place, this home has quick access to Merle hay, Beaverdale and Drake neighborhoods. The property doesn't back to another home structure for a "park-like" feel. Notice the large (14'x22') detached 1 car garage with opener, keyless entry and walk in door. Listed finished square footage does NOT reflect additional basement finished square footage.
