Description
Charming Brick Ranch with Tasteful Updates!
Welcome home to this delightful brick ranch, perfectly blending classic charm with thoughtful updates. Featuring a smart 3-bedroom, 2-bath layout, this home feels warm and inviting from the moment you step inside.
The main level shines with newer carpet and fresh paint throughout. The true standout is the spacious eat-in kitchen—bright and welcoming with an expansive bump-out window bay that floods the space with natural light. You’ll love the generous cabinetry, ample counter space, and room for a full kitchen table. Both the kitchen and bathroom have been nicely updated, and beautiful hardwood floors run throughout the bedrooms (and underneath the new main-level carpet).
Downstairs, the finished lower level offers excellent flexible space, including a ¾ bath, a fun retro bar perfect for entertaining, and a basement that was recently professionally waterproofed for peace of mind.
Step outside to enjoy a private, spacious backyard—ideal for relaxation, play, or gardening. The oversized 2-car garage with an attached shed provides plenty of storage and workspace.
Located in a wonderful, quiet neighborhood, you’re just minutes from shopping, restaurants, and all the conveniences of Altoona and Pleasant Hill. This is the perfect blend of comfort, functionality, and location!

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe were warned about sending our kids to this school as we were new to the area. We did attempt to open enroll to another school but being as we moved so late, they were full so I can’t help but feel we got “stuck” with this school.This will be our first and only year at this school. The kids that attend here are terribly behaved. Bullying is an issue, there seems to be no dress code, and there are A LOT of thieves here. My son also got into a fight here (he was defending himself from a kid who was bothering him the entire year) and it was poorly handled by the school. Basically was told to come pick up our child and the lady wasn’t even going to tell me what happened that had led up to the fight. That was annoying. We’re military so we move often and we have never had issues with any school like this or dealt with kids like the ones that go to this school. The kids here have severe behavior issues.Parent Review3mo ago - Brubaker Elementary School
