This well-kept brick ranch is more than just a home-it's a legacy of care, comfort, and space to make your own. Tucked away on a peaceful street with little traffic, this home offers the perfect balance of comfort, space, and smart functionality in a location close to downtown, shops, restaurants, and schools. Inside, you'll find large, light-filled bedrooms and an office that easily converts back into a third bedroom. The main living area features a unique double-sided fireplace that connects to the finished basement-where you'll find a second full bathroom with a walk-in shower, a dry bar, and a dedicated work area-ideal for hobbyists or hosting. The front patio is perfect for your morning coffee or evening wind-down, while the heated, oversized garage gives you room for everything-cars, tools, storage, you name it. The wide driveway adds even more parking flexibility for guests or extra vehicles. This is a well-cared-for home that's been filled with pride and purpose. Now it's ready for its next chapter.
