611 E 3rd St, Bridgewater, SD 57319

Picture a Saturday in Bridgewater: friends crowded around the refreshed kitchen by evening, then a movie going in the downstairs family room once the dishes are done. This ranch on East 3rd Street is sized right for that kind of easy, full life in a small South Dakota town. The kitchen is where everyone ends up. Updated cabinets and countertops sit over updated flooring, and the room has a clean, welcoming feel for cooking and gathering. Luxury vinyl plank and carpet run through the living spaces, and morning light fills the main level. The primary bedroom is on the main floor, and a spacious main-floor laundry and storage room keeps the chores in one place so they never crowd the fun. Downstairs, the finished family room is the hangout. Game day and movie night both land here, with 560 finished square feet on the lower level and another 547 unfinished square feet for storage or a future rec room. In all, the home offers 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms across 1,667 finished square feet, with a full bath and a half bath. Outside, the deck is the spot for summer suppers and long conversations after the sun goes down. Mature shade trees keep the backyard cool, and the 50 by 142 lot leaves room for a game of catch or a lawn chair circle. A storage shed holds the yard gear. The 14 by 24 oversized attached garage is a rare find in Bridgewater at this size, with room for the car plus a workbench and the tailgate gear. The practical side is handled, so weekends stay free. Recent exterior updates mean fewer projects, and the cement hardboard siding and shingle roof keep outside upkeep modest. Central air and propane heat keep the seasons comfortable, and the owned water softener stays. City water and sewer come with curb and gutter and public street maintenance. The kitchen includes an electric range and a refrigerator, with a disposal at the sink. A garage door opener and smoke detectors are in place, and annual taxes are $1,104.48 at the owner-occupied rate. Bridgewater is a small town in McCook County, South Dakota, where the pace leaves time for the people who matter. East 3rd Street sits north of Highway 262 off Cherry Street, and the home is in the Bridgewater-Emery School District. Built in 1971, this Bridgewater ranch has a full basement on a block foundation and 5 rooms in all. Possession can be immediate. Come see it in person. This one feels like home the moment you walk in.
