Description

Beautiful 3-Bedroom Home - Excellent Condition - Quiet Neighborhood
This 1,328 sq. ft. home with an additional 252 sq. ft. flex area/breezeway offers the perfect blend of space, condition, and versatility. Built in 1950 and exceptionally well cared for, it's move-in ready and fits a wide range of buyer types—from first-time homeowners to those looking to downsize without sacrificing space.
Inside, you'll find three large bedrooms and a spacious bathroom, plus a bright and open flow throughout. The flex area is a huge bonus space—ideal for a sunroom, hobby area, or home office. The full, functional basement is another dynamite bonus, offering abundant storage, workshop potential, or future living space.
Recent updates include a newer exterior sewer line for added peace of mind. The attached oversized 2-car garage provides extra storage and easy parking, and the driveway extends all the way to the alley for convenience.
Located in a quiet, desirable neighborhood, this home delivers excellent value in both condition and location. With so much to offer, it's a property you'll be proud to call home.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources. This description is from October 01, 2025
