Overview

Description

A place to call home on a quiet, dead-end street that is on a less than a mile from Riverside Park (180+ acres, trails, water access, and don't miss Food Truck Fridays!), Kingma's Market, Sparrows Coffee, and so much more! This 3 bedroom, 2 full bathroom ranch has original details that add character and warmth you can't find in newer homes today, such as hardwood floors, built-in mail slot, and a milk delivery door. Downstairs is roughly 520 more finished square feet, adding real flexibility with a family room, full bathroom, bonus room, and workshop — bringing total living area to around 1,480 square feet without sacrificing that efficient, easy-to-maintain ranch layout. Out back, a screened-in porch overlooks your fully fenced yard and a one stall garage. The roof is only 6 years old means one less thing to think about after move-in. This is a property where you aren't just buying the home. You are buying the location and lifestyle that comes with it. You're getting walkability a ...

Supplements: proximity in an established neighborhood with character. Open House Saturday, August 1 from 12-2PM. Offers due Monday, August 3rd at 8PM.
