Welcome to your dream home, a meticulously updated ranch perfect for families and first-time home buyers alike. This stunning single-family residence boasts three cozy bedrooms and 1.5 modern bathrooms; all set on a spacious .48-acre lot that provides both privacy and room to grow. As soon as you step inside, you'll fall in love with the luxury vinyl plank flooring that graces the living room and dining room, a recent addition that enhances the home's contemporary feel. The living room is also home to a warm gas fireplace, inviting you to relax and unwind. Entertaining is a delight in the updated kitchen, where you'll find gorgeous granite countertops, a convenient breakfast bar, and all the essential appliances included. The significant upgrades demonstrate the care put into the home: a furnace and central air system from 2019 ensure year-round comfort, while the roof, replaced in 2014, provides peace of mind. The exterior's fresh coat of paint from 2022 adds to the curb appeal, and the hot water heater, brand new in 2023, guarantees efficiency and reliability. The property includes a full fenced-in yard installed in 2019, ideal for safe family fun and gatherings. For the hobbyist or those needing extra storage, there's a handy shed added in 2018. The finished basement features a built-in bar, perfect for hosting, plus plenty of additional storage space. Convenience is key, and this home delivers with an attached 2-car garage to keep your vehicles sheltered. Whether you're looking for a serene family home or a starter house with all the bells and whistles, this residence checks all the boxes. Welcome home!
