About this House

Need space for the family! Great ranch home near schools, shopping, and downtown DeKalb. The main level has hardwood floors - newer hardwood flooring in the living room, kitchen, and hallway. The large living room can also be combined with a dining room. The kitchen has a breakfast bar, is fully applianced and the built-in oven cabinet can easily be made into a custom pantry or additional cabinet space. The eating area overlooks the lovely backyard with mature trees. There is a pass-through from the kitchen to the living room with a granite countertop. A nice place to sit and eat or chat with those in the living room. The hall bath and master bathrooms have both been remodeled. Both have new vanities, new flooring, and new tile surrounds in the showers. The master shower has a rain fountain feature. All three bedrooms on the main level have hardwood floors and ample closet space. The basement, accessed through the garage, is fully finished with a large laundry room (new washer and dryer will be provided). There is a recreation room complete with a kitchenette and full bathroom. What a great place for the kids to hang out. There is also an in-law suite with two bedrooms - both have egress windows. The in-law suite has a small kitchenette and a full, private bathroom. The basement is custom designed and built by contractors. There is more space than meets the eye with this home. The backyard is very secluded and there is no backyard neighbor. Privacy shutters on the front windows. Two-car garage and a new concrete walkway and patio. Newer mechanicals, all new flooring throughout the majority of the home, full finished basement, and all new drainage. So much new in this great ranch home in the Hillcrest Subdivision. What a wonderful place to call home!
