Property Description

Just outside the city limits of Drexel, this well-maintained 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers a rare combination of convenience and value with city water service and no city taxes. Situated on just over a half-acre, this home provides a peaceful setting with room to enjoy the outdoors, plus a storage building that conveys. Inside, the home features a thoughtfully updated kitchen with butcher block countertops and a clean, inviting aesthetic that opens to the main living area with solid oak hardwood floors throughout. The bathroom has also been refreshed with a current look and feel. The open-concept layout creates an easy flow for everyday living, and the washer and dryer are conveniently located just off the living space for added functionality. A durable brick exterior paired with a metal roof offers low-maintenance living and long-term peace of mind, while the HVAC system was replaced in 2020, adding to the home’s overall value and efficiency. A covered carport provides convenient parking and easy access.

Located on a quiet street yet just minutes from local amenities, this home offers the flexibility to fit a variety of lifestyles—close to everything you need, without the added cost of city taxes.
