Description

Welcome to one of Meeting House Hill's finest offerings — a beautifully updated ranch-style rambler home on a quiet cul-de-sac, where every major system has been thoughtfully refreshed and a breathtaking backdrop of Pike Creek Valley awaits you out back. From the moment you step through the stunning new entry door, you'll feel the difference that true pride of ownership makes. Rich hardwood floors flow throughout the entire first floor, anchoring a warm, cohesive living space that's as move-in ready as it gets. The updated kitchen and baths have been tastefully refreshed, offering modern finishes without sacrificing the character that makes this neighborhood so beloved. Beyond its undeniable curb appeal, this home delivers the kind of peace of mind that buyers dream about. Converted to natural gas with a fully updated HVAC system, updated roof and siding, updated electrical panel, and newer high end washer, dryer, and refrigerator — every major item on a buyer's checklist has already been handled for you. Simply unpack and enjoy. Step outside and discover your own private retreat. The fully private backyard offers serene, unobstructed views overlooking Pike Creek Valley — a rare backdrop that transforms everyday living into something truly special. Whether you're sipping your morning coffee on the patio or hosting a summer evening with friends, this setting never gets old. And for those looking to build equity, the basement presents an outstanding opportunity. Already studded, framed, and wired for a 4th bedroom and potential for a full bathroom, the groundwork is laid — all that's left is your finishing touch. In Meeting House Hill, a home with this combination of location, condition, and upside doesn't stay on the market long.
