This well-maintained, charming mid-century ranch home in desirable Beverly Hills has plenty of room thanks to an expansive, sunny family room addition, sizable eat-in kitchen with new flooring, and three spacious bedrooms, one of which is perfect for use as an office or even a dining room. Primary bedroom has ensuite bathroom with small shower. The full basement features a substantial workshop area and tall ceilings, exterior and interior entrances, and the potential to add living space if finished. Freshly painted interior, a fenced backyard, one-car garage, tankless hot water heater, 2020 roof, and efficient gas furnace add to the value in this solid home--refrigerator, washer, and dryer included!
