    What's special

    This home was sold last fall with a delayed closing and now the buyers have been transferred so this home is now back on the market. This updated and spacious walk/out ranch is located "South of Grand" on a very large (1/3 acre) lot with beautiful landscaping, a fenced rear yard and a two level patio. The main floor features a living room with a stone wood burning fireplace, a dining room, an all white eat-in kitchen with granite countertops, a mud room next to the 2 car attached garage and 4 bedrooms and 2 1/2 bathrooms. One of the bedrooms is small and is presently being used as an office. The large master bedroom addition at the rear of the home has its own 3/4 bath plus a first floor laundry. The lower level is finished with a family room, another bedroom, 3/4 bath and an exercise room. This home is very spacious and has lots of sunny natural light and beautiful views out the new energy efficient windows. Shows well!

    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
