This 4 bedroom 2.5 bath ranch home (with a new septic system!) is in a sought after neighborhood on a quiet cul-de-sac. This home features a central family room, a double fireplace, a rec/playroom and a three-season porch. A generously sized entrance foyer leads you into a comfortable and livable house. The formal living/dining area gets loads of light with a large picture window. The double fireplace is shared between the living room and the family room which also has hardwood flooring and sliders to a three-season porch. The kitchen has an open feel as a peninsula, with room for seating, overlooks the family room. Granite counters, a double wall oven, a large pantry and a breakfast nook are features of the remodeled kitchen. The 4 bedrooms are well-sized. The primary bedroom has a en-suite bath with a walk-in shower and double sinks. If you need office space or just a place to play or relax, the rec/playroom fits the bill. It is large with built-in cabinets and its own heating zone. There is storage space galore (including a double cedar closet) in the full, unfinished basement along with access to the oversized 2 car garage. Laundry is conveniently located on the main floor. If all this isn't enough - there is central AC, a central vac, public water and it's in the Peck Place school district. Houses with amenities and location like this are rare gems - don't miss this one! This is an AS-IS sale.
