Oh,my goodness. This all brick ranch sits on a lot cared for by a master gardener. The owners have added a beautiful sunroom that overlooks that beautiful yard, but is used a lot for relaxation and reading. The extra half bath was also added for the best convenience! Main bedroom holds a king-sized bed easily. The living room fireplace is electric, but has a gas outlet there. In 2017 sellers added a new roof, furnace, air, windows, and gutters. Sunroom was 2014.

The owners have added a beautiful sunroom that overlooks that beautiful yard, but is used a lot for relaxation and reading. The extra half bath was also added for the best convenience! Main bedroom holds a king-sized bed easily. The living room fireplace is electric, but has a gas outlet there. In 2017 sellers added a new roof, furnace, air, windows, and gutters. Sunroom was 2014. The septic tank and laterals were cleaned in 2021. The house was also built with metal studs. If you love the retro look and entertaining, you will love the huge basement. It has a bar that will seat six easily. The rest has sitting room for the entire family, a sink and stove and another gathering space around the fireplace. The lower level office offers a quiet working space if working from home. There is a separate electrical breaker for the dish washer, AC and microwave.
