Ow! It’s a brick house; it's mighty mighty, this house is stacked and that’s a fact! 1705 S Riding Lane in rarely available and desirable Glen Berne Estates is a solidly built ranch home with traditional red brick that offers a ton of entertainment value! Some solid updates have been added to this beauty! Driving up, notice the custom pillars flanking the wide concrete driveway which leads to the large 2 car garage with a covered breezeway between the garages and home. The strength continues with the addition of new windows and shutters around 5 years ago! Stability and safety are further enhanced by the newer whole home surge protector and the very high grade water treatment system that includes a reverse osmosis system in the kitchen! Entertaining is a dream inside and outside! Inside you will find a traditional yet spacious floorplan with an open living/dining area, a full kitchen with a pantry, 3 nice bedrooms and a well appointed partially finished lower level with many potential uses. The rear door leads to an incredible outside oasis that boasts a rather flat and large fenced rear yard. Features include extensive hardscaping, 2 sheds, 2 gazebos, an outdoor sink, and so much more! It is perfect for gatherings of all kinds or just for sheer enjoyment of the beautiful outdoor experience itself! Storage is fabulous here as well! The garage has a floored, upper-level for maximum utility. The lower level is partially finished and has lots of additional storage space. This mighty brick house home has been lovingly cared for with tons of upgrades and improvements. This is a rare opportunity to get an increasingly hard to find, larger ranch home in outstanding condition. See it, love it, buy it!
