    All-brick ranch homeCorner lotMain floor laundry room
    This expansive all-brick ranch, situated on a quiet dead-end street in the heart of Union Township, offers an incredible opportunity to build sweat equity in a high-demand area. Boasting a solid structure and a classic floor plan, this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home is perfect for those looking to customize a residence to their exact tastes. The curb appeal begins with the timeless durability of a full brick exterior, a feature that ensures low maintenance for years to come. Upon entering, you are greeted by an open-concept kitchen and living room layout that serves as the heart of the home. This airy space is designed for modern living, allowing for seamless interaction while cooking or entertaining. Large windows throughout the main level flood the interior with natural light, highlighting the original hardwood flooring that runs through the majority of the living areas and bedrooms. The main floor living room features a focal-point fireplace, perfect for cozying up during cold winter months. Just off the kitchen, you’ll find the convenience of main floor laundry, a highly sought-after feature that eliminates the need for frequent trips to the basement. For those who enjoy the outdoors without the hassle of pests or weather, the home includes a large sunroom. This versatile space provides a peaceful retreat for morning coffee, a home office, or a playroom, offering panoramic views of the private backyard. The primary bedroom and two additional bedrooms are well-proportioned, offering ample closet space and easy access to the two full bathrooms. While the home needs cosmetic updates, the "bones" are exceptional, providing a blank canvas for your renovation vision. One of the most impressive features of this property is the full, unfinished basement. Spanning the entire footprint of the house, this massive space offers endless possibilities for a home gym, workshop, or additional living quarters. It also features a second fireplace, mirroring the one on the main floor, which would make a future finished basement exceptionally inviting. The location is unparalleled. Tucked away on a dead-end street in Union Township, you will enjoy minimal traffic and a sense of privacy while remaining just minutes from local shopping, dining, and major highway access. Whether you are an investor looking for your next project or a homeowner ready to design your dream space from the ground up, this property is a rare find. With its all-brick construction, dual fireplaces, and prime location, the potential here is limitless. Bring your tools and your imagination—this Union Township gem is ready to be restored to its full glory.
