Description
Updated and move-in ready brick ranch with basement in Forsyth! Conveniently located near shopping, restaurants, hotels, Hwy 72 and within the Maroa Forsyth School District. Tastefully remodeled throughout with an open concept kitchen/living/dining area. Within the past year, the home has been updated with new flooring throughout the main level, new paint and trim and a new roof in 2024! Kitchen has quartz counters and stainless appliances. Enjoy peaceful mornings or evenings in the screened-in porch overlooking the almost half acre property. The spacious basement is partially finished with a rec room area, den, exercise room, laundry and full bath. No need to stress about losing power during a storm since there is a Generac generator that stays with the home! Outside is a quaint patio area off the kitchen, large landscaped yard and a shed that could be used for storage or workshop/hobby space. Close to the bike trail that leads to both Forsyth and Cresthaven parks. Don't miss!
