There’s something about 533 Prospect Drive that just feels like home. Nestled along a peaceful street, this inviting ranch offers comfortable living spaces filled with natural light and a layout designed for everyday life. The kitchen features new countertops and backsplash, adding a fresh, updated touch. The finished lower level provides additional space to relax, entertain or make your own. Outside, the spacious deck and landscaped yard invite you to slow down and enjoy the outdoors. The 408-square-foot garage extends an impressive 32 feet deep, providing extra room for vehicles, storage, a workbench or recreational gear. Thoughtful updates, including a newer roof, windows and front exterior doors, add peace of mind. Conveniently located near Sunset Park, the YMCA and Johnson Elementary, this well-cared-for home is ready to welcome its next chapter. Clay County Assessor's value does not reflect the complete remodel and 2 conforming bedrooms added in lower level.
