About this House
Smart Start - Designed for easy main-level living with room to grow over time, this three-bedroom ranch home puts everything you need right within reach. The kitchen offers warm cabinetry, a peninsula with counter seating and track lighting, while the living room feels bright and inviting, centered around a bay window that brings in natural light and adds a touch of character. With a little TLC, this home offers wonderful potential. The full bath is thoughtfully adapted with a walk-in bathtub, while the primary bedroom includes its own walk through half bath. One of the bedrooms features laundry hookups, giving you the flexibility to keep it as a bedroom or create a convenient laundry space to fit your needs. The full unfinished basement provides a blank canvas for future finishing, storage, or hobbies. Step outside to enjoy the composite deck and nicely sized yard, along with the convenience of a two-car attached garage. A great opportunity for first-time buyers or anyone ready to enjoy the simple ranch style living with room to make it their own.

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageHorrible!!!! Consider any other surrounding school before Spencer... PLEASE! This school system is a joke and is extremely pretentious. Several families I know of have removed their children from this school system this year with more doing the same next year. My child will no longer attend school here, either, as the support, educational excellence and moral compasses of the educators and administration is C level at best.Parent Review8y ago - Fairview Park Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAll 3 of my children have gone or are still going to Johnson. Our oldest, now 8 and attending Fairview, began attending in kindergarten when they began the grade alike program. The program has been absolutely wonderful. The bullying happens less often. And when it does happen, it is taken care of immediately. The Child's Garden program at Johnson for preschool there is one of the best preschool programs I've seen yet. . The staff is knowledgeable and wonderful. They have made such an impression on my children and they all love going to school just to see their teachers! You couldn't ask for anything better!Parent Review11y ago - Lincoln Elementary School
