If your wish list starts with "I really don't want to have to do anything..." keep reading. Located on a quiet cul-de-sac, this 2-bedroom Ranch has had years of thoughtful improvements that make moving in and simply enjoying your new home pretty darn easy. Inside, hardwood floors run through the living room and bedrooms, the fireplace adds a cozy focal point, and the updated kitchen features granite countertops, plenty of cabinetry and an easy flow into the dining area. A refreshed full bath and fresh paint throughout much of the home keep things feeling bright and current. But the real story here is everything you won't have to add to your to-do list. The roof, windows, driveway, furnace, hot water heater and appliances were all replaced in 2019; and the improvements kept coming. Since then, the home has been connected to public sewer and received vinyl siding, a new front door, deck, front walkway and a garage. Out back, the fully fenced yard gives you plenty of space for a barbecue, a garden, a game of fetch or absolutely nothing at all. The unfinished basement offers great storage today with possibilities for tomorrow. All of this in a quiet neighborhood setting that still keeps shopping, restaurants and commuter routes within easy reach. Sometimes the best kind of project is the one somebody else already finished.
