    What's special

    Classic example of quality WW2 era construction. 4BR and 2BA ranch with a 3-car garage and WALKOUT BASEMENT! Built in 1942, this former General Electric model home was made to last and the owners of the last 45 years have done a flawless job of taking care of it. IMMACULATE! Formal foyer with tiled entry, oak hardwoods under all newer carpeting, finished basement, nicely sized kitchen, breakfast nook, formal living room with fireplace. One-of-a-kind layout you just have to come see. Cozy kitchen with beautifully refinished Carr cabinets, electric cooktop, wall oven, dishwasher and microwave. Lots of countertop space! The moment you walk down the stairs to the lower level, the rec room has a crazy cool wow factor. Impeccably finished with stone-wrapped electric fireplace, partially exposed windows - all done super well with plenty of natural light. Full concrete basement staircase to ground level. Sizable utility room and space for laundry, storage and utilities. Tons and tons of updates and new/newer equipment. Some updates were about 10+/- years ago which included new furnace, central air, roofing and new drain tile with Dry Otter. All windows were re-sashed within the last 5 years. This home is served by a private well, with a new pressure tank, pump and sand filter installed in 2021. New concrete sidewalk all the way to the front door in 2022. Outside, is as perfect as can be. Over half acre corner lot originally platted as 3 combined lots in the COUNTY ZONE with super low tax rate. The garage is a DREAM! 2-car detached garage with newer concrete driveway and a connected 1-car shop partitioned area with interior overhead door. It's country living in the city, complete with a vegetable garden, tree canopy with partial shade and newer concrete patio(s). It's storybook wonderful!
