The finished lower level offers 8-foot ceilings, a large family room, and the third bedroom, providing plenty of additional living space.

The .63-acre lot gives you room to enjoy your property, while the 30x24 detached garage is perfect for a mechanic, hobbyist, workshop, toys, or extra storage. Enjoy nearby Sargent's Park and its splash park, head over to Grandview Golf Course for a round, or take advantage of quick access to I-235 and I-80.
