This charming 3-bedroom, 1.1-bath ranch in the heart of Spring Glen is full of warmth, updates, and community vibes that make you feel like you've truly arrived. Start your mornings with coffee on the front porch as friendly neighbors stroll by with dogs in tow or take a peaceful walk to Johnson's Pond just across the street-fishing pole optional but highly encouraged! Inside, you'll find beautiful hardwood floors in the living room and all bedrooms, plus a cozy wood-burning fireplace framed by built-in cabinets and shelves-perfect for displaying your favorite books, photos, or plants. The HGTV-worthy full bath on the main level has been beautifully renovated, and the eat-in kitchen features ceiling-height cabinets for excellent storage. Head downstairs to a finished lower level complete with a half bath, cedar closet, laundry area, and bonus space ideal for a home office, game room, or movie nights with popcorn in hand. Step out from the kitchen onto a spacious back deck overlooking your private yard-great for entertaining or just soaking up the sunshine. There's also an oversized one-car garage with plenty of extra room for storage or tinkering. Major updates include a newer roof, central air, furnace, and hot water heater-so you can move in and relax. In Spring Glen, life is just sweeter-where neighbors wave, dogs wag, and cafes and restaurants are just a short skip away. Back on market;buyers remorse - their loss your gain!
