About this House

This Southside 3-bedroom home sits on a large lot with an oversized driveway and a mechanic's 2+ car garage, just minutes from downtown and 10 minutes from the airport. It is tidy, updated, and features a wealth of bonus space. Pull into the driveway and see the tiered, custom landscaping and swing, perfectly positioned to enjoy the view of the elevated lot. Step inside to a large living room with warm hardwood flooring and neutral paint to accent the natural light. The kitchen is adjacent to the living area and is spacious with enough room to eat in. Stainless steel appliances, a fresh backsplash, and tiled floors make this a clean and bright space for entertaining. The main floor features three bedrooms, with crisp, white trim and neutral paint throughout, and a full bath with a tiled shower and fresh fixtures is conveniently located just down the hall. Heading downstairs, there is a three-season porch with a view of the backyard, which is big enough for a playset or patio. The walk-out basement features a multi-purpose space that is big enough for a family room, playroom, or home gym, as well as a non-conforming 4th bedroom or home office. Additionally, this level provides a large utility and laundry room. With an extra-large two-car garage that includes a workshop, this well-maintained property is ready for a new owner.
