Cozy and adorable ranch centrally located in the Merle Hay area, close to amenities, a golf course, and the interstate. This lovely home combines classic features like hardwood floors and white trim with modern upgrades in the kitchen and bathroom. The additional parcels or lots also provide some interesting possibilities for the property! There are at least 2 bedrooms with a 3rd non-conforming bedroom in the finished basement. The kitchen has been updated with Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) flooring, which is known for its durability. The bathroom has recently been renovated, which can be a significant selling point as it often means less immediate maintenance for the new homeowner. Other details include newer mechanicals as well as washer and dryer, a fenced-in, park-like backyard with a two-tiered deck, and an attached garage. Roof is brand new as of this year! Additional lot included with purchase (parcel # 090/03250-000-000). Schedule your showing today!
