This well-appointed ranch offers an impressive amount of living space, storage, parking, and outdoor amenities—all in a convenient location close to the highway, shopping, downtown Main Street, parks, pickleball, and more.
Inside, the main level features beautiful hardwood floors through the living room, hallway, and versatile bonus room. The living room is highlighted by a stone gas fireplace with mantle and marble hearth, flanked by built-in shelving for both function and character. The eat-in kitchen offers ample cabinetry, granite countertops, an oversized undermount sink, and stainless-steel appliances that stay with the home.

The lower level also includes a full bathroom, utility room, and dedicated storage area—giving you plenty of options for bedrooms, recreation, hobbies, work-from-home space, or guests.
Outside, the property continues to deliver with an oversized detached two-car garage, fully insulated for added comfort and usability. Additional features include a carport, extra off-street parking, a fenced yard, and a storage shed. The lower portion of the yard also includes an additional storage shed with a concrete driveway providing convenient access from the street.
A beautiful spindle staircase adds an attractive architectural touch while connecting the home's levels. Thoughtfully designed to maximize every inch, this home offers an abundance of storage and livable space that is hard to find at this price point.
