Description

You've heard about homes having good bones, right? It's a little overused, right? Well, I'm going to patella you the absolute truth right now! This fabulous Ranch is FAR MORE than just in move-in condition. It's also FAR MORE than just meticulously maintained...it’s a whole lot BETTER! I'm not making any bones about this gem. Just since 2017, here’s what’s been replaced: the HVAC, the roof (total tear-off, including the garage), the light fixtures, a full bath update, the flooring, the bedroom doors,...You've heard about homes having good bones, right? It's a little overused, right? Well, I'm going to patella you the absolute truth right now! This fabulous Ranch is FAR MORE than just in move-in condition. It's also FAR MORE than just meticulously maintained...it’s a whole lot BETTER! I'm not making any bones about this gem. Just since 2017, here’s what’s been replaced: the HVAC, the roof (total tear-off, including the garage), the light fixtures, a full bath update, the flooring, the bedroom doors, the carpeting in the basement, the asphalt driveway, the deck, the sump pumps with waterpowered backup, and the gutters and downspouts. Do I knee-d to say more? Ok! Let's continue the good bone-anza: the replacement windows are in excellent condition; there is a large eat-in kitchen; there are 2 large finished rooms in the basement, one of which, save for an egress window, would be a perfect bedroom, and the walk-in closet is already there; there's also an area in the basement that's perfect for a full bath (near under stairway); there's a fully enclosed fence around the perimeter of the entire property; the corian in the kitchen looks brand new; the chimney was just inspected, swept, and is ready for cozy nights; the septic just passed the Lake County Health Department's septic POS, which includes a dye test, plus it was pumped and ready for new occupancy; and overall, this house is so clean that you'll almost find it humerus! So, let's just bury the bone on this one, Folks. I'm just marrow-minded when it comes to good bones, but I'm boned to be wild when there's so much more. So, if you've been doubting that you'll find your next home this year, trust your gut-bone: This is home!
