Beautiful three bedroom brick ranch in the heart of Gastonia! Enjoy easy access to everything the city has to offer including downtown, shopping, dining, library, and the Schiele Museum. Nature lovers will have the advantage of close proximity to the greenway and Lineberger Park. This home is full of timeless character and charm. From the exterior, you are immediately greeted by mature landscaping, trees, and built-in flower beds! Traveling inside, your first stop will be the living room, perfect for movie night or hosting friends and family. Surrounded by a relaxing earth-toned color pallet and finished with cozy dark flooring. The kitchen features tons of cabinet storage, a peninsula, pantry, and stainless steel appliances. Nicely appointed bathroom with tile surround shower, and linen storage. All bedrooms boast natural light and have spacious closets! Former garage space off the kitchen has previously been utilized as a bonus room, but could serve endless possibilities, such as rec room, second living room, or home office. Right off this space through the sliding door is a large concrete patio area ideal for hosting your next backyard BBQ.
