This storybook brick home sits proudly on a spacious corner lot in one of the area’s most desirable walkable school zones—you can literally watch kids walk to school from your front yard. With its classic brick exterior and unbeatable location, this home checks all the boxes for buyers searching for safe neighborhoods, family-friendly communities, and high-demand school proximity. Inside, brand-new luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring flows through a warm, inviting layout anchored by a cozy fireplace (recommend cleaning/inspection before use). The home features oversized bedrooms, abundant storage, and a flexible floor plan perfect for families, first-time buyers, or anyone seeking a move-in-ready home with upgrade potential. Mechanically solid with a durable metal roof, 2018 A/C, and 2008 water heater, this property offers peace of mind and long-term value. The expansive, fully fenced backyard includes a unique bonus: the former pool was professionally filled in, but all pool equipment remains, giving you the option to enjoy a sweeping green lawn or restore the pool for instant equity and lifestyle appeal. A private carport adds rare convenience, secure parking, and extra storage—an in-demand feature buyers actively search for in this area. While the home is ready for a few cosmetic updates to unlock its full potential, the location, corner-lot presence, and family-friendly walkability make it a standout opportunity. Some photos are virtually staged to showcase design inspiration and highlight the home’s true possibilities. Preferred lender offering $1,000 credit.
