You'll love this charming mid-century one-story home located in the Hillcrest Subdivision. This spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home is perfect for those seeking the ease of main-level living. Upon entering, you're greeted by an extended foyer with a generously sized entry closet. Newer vinyl plank flooring flows seamlessly through the foyer, living room, and dining room. The extra large living room is bathed in natural light, thanks to its large windows, making it a perfect spot for showcasing your favorite houseplants. The dining room, centrally located in the heart of the home, offers views of the backyard and is ideal for both everyday meals and entertaining. Adjacent to the dining room, the fully applianced kitchen has ample counter space, abundant cabinetry, and a breakfast bar that invites both casual meals and socializing. With a newer dishwasher and refrigerator, it's a great space for preparing meals while staying connected with guests. Down the hall, you'll find a full bathroom with plenty of storage and a walk-in shower. The primary bedroom features hardwood flooring, newer trim, and a private ensuite. Bedrooms 2 and 3 also showcase beautiful hardwood floors. Throughout the home, you'll find fresh, neutral paint, allowing for a wide variety of decor styles. The first-floor laundry/mudroom includes a huge pantry and plenty of space for hooks, a bench, or storage for coats and shoes. Several rooms feature newer doors and trim. Most of the windows have been replaced, with the exception of the patio door, and all blinds are included. Nicor Solutions has added insulation to both the attic and foundation for improved energy efficiency. The full, unfinished basement includes a third bathroom, though it has never been used by the current owners. The electrical system has been updated, and the sump pump, battery backup, and water softener are owned. The attached 2-car garage offers additional parking with two extra parking pads. The side yard features a garden shed for storing lawn equipment. Plus, the home is within walking distance to schools and is conveniently located near shopping, medical facilities, recreational amenities, and offers easy access to the interstate. This is a solidly built home in a fantastic neighborhood, ready for you to make it your own!
