Welcome to one of Independence's best-kept secrets—known by locals as the "Honey Pot of Independence." Located in the highly sought-after Blue Springs School District, this beautifully updated raised ranch offers the perfect combination of comfort, convenience, and charm.

Inside, you'll find original hardwood floors throughout the main level, a beautifully updated kitchen with granite countertops, and both bathrooms finished with natural Carrera marble countertops. The rare four-bedroom layout provides extra space that's hard to find in this neighborhood.

The finished walkout basement offers additional living space and features a built-in storm shelter for added peace of mind. Every inch of this home has been meticulously maintained, making it truly move-in ready.

Step outside to a great backyard with a huge deck that's perfect for summer BBQs, entertaining friends, or simply enjoying a quiet evening outdoors.

Situated on a peaceful cul-de-sac, you'll love the quiet neighborhood feel while being just 2 minutes from shopping and grocery stores, 5 minutes from the library, and within 7 minutes of multiple parks.

If you've been searching for a beautifully updated home in the Blue Springs School District with a rare four-bedroom floor plan, an amazing outdoor space, and an unbeatable location, this one checks all the boxes.
