A West Portage gem! Welcome to 4704 Romence Rd, a cherished residence offered to the market for the very first time since its construction in 1966. Situated in the desirable Burket Heights neighborhood within the Portage School District, this solid ranch home represents a rare opportunity to own a property with a legacy of meticulous care. From the moment you arrive, the classic curb appeal, highlighted by a charming white picket fence and mature trees, invites you inside to discover a layout designed for effortless living.
Step into a bright and welcoming living room where a large picture window frames the front yard, filling the space with natural light. The flow leads seamlessly into the heart of the home: a kitchen featuring durable solid oak cabinetry, ample counter space, and a convenient snack bar for casual meals. The adjacent dining area opens directly onto the rear deck, creating a perfect transition for indoor-outdoor dining. Unlike many homes of this era, this floor plan offers a second gathering space on the main level - a cozy family room anchored by a warm brick fireplace.
A true hallmark of convenience, this level also features a dedicated main-floor laundry area tucked within one of the two full bathrooms. The full basement offers significant bonus space, featuring a finished recreation room with a second fireplace and a vintage feel - ideal for hobbies or casual entertaining. The remainder of the basement provides massive potential for clean storage, a workshop, or a private home office. Outside, the generous wooded lot offers a private sanctuary with plenty of room for gardening or play. With its solid bones, replacement windows, and unbeatable location off 12th St, this home is ready for its next chapter.
