Property Description

Adorable 1.5-story, 3-bedroom, 2-bath home tucked away on a cul-de-sac. The fenced ¼-acre lot offers plenty of room for a garden, pets, play, and outdoor entertaining. Inside, you’ll find hardwood floors, a coved ceiling, white trim, and an updated kitchen featuring white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a gas range, and a cozy breakfast nook. Two bedrooms and a full bath are located on the main level, while the spacious upstairs bedroom has a full bath of its own with a tiled shower and updated vanity. Storage is plentiful with closets and built-in shelving throughout. The lower level adds even more usable space with a family room, non-conforming bedroom, laundry area with washer and dryer included, and a workshop area with an additional refrigerator. Outside, there’s even more to appreciate: a heated 1+ car garage with updated electrical, gazebo, playground, storage shed, newer sidewalk and stoops, and mature shade trees. Major improvements include the roof (2018) and a basement perimeter system (2021). And when it’s time to get out and explore, Union Park Splash Pad, Heritage Carousel, Birdland Pool, and Riverview Park are all nearby. A comfortable home, a great yard, and plenty of space inside and out. Some photos are virtually staged.
