Welcome home to this charming, move-in-ready ranch that perfectly blends comfort with some modern updates. Step inside to find a bright and airy layout featuring some freshly painted walls that flows seamlessly throughout the 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom floor plan. The spacious primary suite and well-appointed guest rooms provide the ideal setup for families or those looking for effortless, one-level living on a solid crawl space foundation. There is new flooring in one of the bedrooms and the tankless water heater was installed in 2011 (flushed and descaled in the fall of 2025). The heart of the home extends outdoors to your own private oasis. Whether you’re hosting a summer BBQ or enjoying a quiet morning coffee, you’ll love the choice between the composite deck or the elegant poured stamped patio. Both overlook a large, fully fenced backyard, offering a secure and expansive space for pets, play, or gardening.
