Take a look at this solid brick ranch set on an extra-deep 37' x 186' lot. The main level features two bedrooms, a spacious living/dining room combo, an eat-in kitchen, and a bright family room addition overlooking the oversized yard. Beautiful hardwood floors are waiting to be uncovered beneath the main-level carpet. The finished basement extends your living space with a third bedroom, a bathroom, and a generous family/recreation room. You'll also appreciate the large separate laundry/work room for added convenience.
