Welcome to this beautifully updated ranch home offering comfortable one-level living, generous living spaces, and the bonus of an extra lot directly behind the property! From the inviting curb appeal to the expanded concrete driveway, this home has been thoughtfully improved inside and out. The interior features a spacious living room with a picture window overlooking the oversized backyard, a separate family room, and a dining area, giving you plenty of room to relax, gather, or entertain. The completely renovated kitchen showcases soft-close maple cabinetry, a sliding drawer pantry, large island with seating, quartz countertops, stylish under-cabinet lighting, stainless steel Frigidaire Gallery appliances, and updated sink, faucet, and garbage disposal. The primary suite includes a beautiful private bath with tiled walk-in shower, while the updated hall bath offers a new vanity, tub surround, lighting, and toilet. Two nicely sized bedrooms complete the indoor living space. Outside, enjoy the 20x20 patio off the sliding doors, concrete walkways, backyard storage shed, and the added space and flexibility of the extra rear lot. Other notable updates and improvements since 2024 include concrete work consisting of a 6x12 pad in front, widened driveway, 4-foot-wide walkway to the backyard, 10-foot-wide pad behind the garage, and patio, along with six new ceiling fans, new flooring throughout, added attic insulation, new vanity and toilet in the primary bath, fresh paint throughout, HVAC service, roof inspection and maintenance, and tree removal. Move-in ready with room to enjoy both inside and out, this home is one you will not want to miss!
