What's special

Wood burning fireplaceAbove ground poolFull partially finished basementRolling yardBeautiful treesTwo large egress windowsFantastic patio area

Gorgeous 4 bed-3 bath move-in ready ranch awaits a new owner. Sitting at the back of a cul-de-sac, there are 5.21 acres total including rolling yard and beautiful trees. Fantastic patio area and an above ground pool added. Rooms are big and the open floor plan dining room and living room are simply exquisite. Built-in bookcases by the wood burning fireplace and big bay window in the living room take your breath away. The former owners had updated most of this living space in the last few years, and it is ready to move into. Current owners added a third bathroom in the laundry room off the kitchen in the last year. The main bathroom and master bathroom have been updated to the newest style and you will love it! The full partially finished basement has a rec/exercise room with two large egress windows added and created a large 4th bedroom with a kitchenette. Come and see this one if you are ready to buy and move in right away. It doesn't need a thing!
