What's special

Classic brick ranchSprawling level yardFlexible interior space

A truly unique opportunity in the heart of Liberty! Owned by the same family since 1962, this classic brick ranch sits on an impressive 1.12-acre lot—a rare find within town limits. Originally designed as a 3-bedroom home, one bedroom was converted to a dining room and retains its closet, offering flexibility to convert it back if desired. The living room features a fireplace with gas logs installed approximately 2 years ago. What really sets this property apart is the unique flex space addition. Added as a beauty salon in 1970, with its own entrance, driveway and half bath, it offers possibilities for a home office, studio, hobby space, potential small business use, or renovation into additional living space. Outside, the sprawling level yard offers plenty of room to enjoy. With an unusual amount of land for an in-town property, flexible interior space and more than 60 years of history, this is not your typical brick ranch. So much potential and so many possibilities!
