Nestled on a spacious, usable 1.88-acre lot, this lovingly maintained one-owner ranch offers comfort, versatility, and room to grow. Once part of a former chicken farm, the property provides a peaceful setting with plenty of space to enjoy the outdoors. This 7-room, 1,568-square-foot home features a spacious living room with a fireplace, two bedrooms, and two full bathrooms, including a primary suite with a recently installed stall shower. An office/flex room can easily serve as a third bedroom, allowing the layout to adapt to your changing needs. The flexible floor plan offers excellent opportunities for customization, including the option to expand the kitchen into the adjoining dining room to create a larger eat-in kitchen. Major updates completed over the years include the roof, siding, gutters, sidewalks, and paved driveway, providing added peace of mind for the next owner. Additional features include central air conditioning, an alarm system, generator wiring, and an attached two-car garage. The property is being sold in its current condition, AS-IS, and presents an excellent opportunity to add value. The rear screened porch requires new supports and reconstruction, and the front left porch has areas of wood damage that will require repair. Audio and video surveillance cameras are in use and do not convey with the sale.
