If you've been endlessly scrolling renovation reels, dreaming of transforming a solid 1960s all brick ranch into your own show-stopping modern masterpiece—this is your moment. Tucked on 1.29 private, wooded acres in the heart of the Crabtree/Laurel Hills area, this home has the good bones you're looking for and a daylight basement that opens to a lush backyard oasis.Upstairs, you'll find 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, just waiting for your creative touch. Generous closets and spacious baths give you room to reimagine the layout, and the kitchen—already updated over the years—has additional potential to be opened into the den for that open-concept dream space with a farmhouse table, fireplace, and cozy keeping room. Downstairs, there's even more space: a second living area, bedrooms, a bathroom, and a kitchenette—perfect for guests, in-laws, or future rental income. Want more? There's potential for an ADU or extra storage, and you're just minutes to Shelley Lake, Crabtree Valley Mall, and major highways (I-440, I-540, and US-70). Move in now, renovate over time, and build your own million-dollar transformation or renovation loan options allow you to do it all ahead of moving in!
