Welcome to this sweet and inviting ranch-lovingly maintained and ready for its next chapter. Tucked on an oversized lot in a quiet DeKalb neighborhood, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath home is full of charm, comfort, and potential. Peace of mind comes easy here with many big-ticket items already completed. Updated bathroom + newer roof, siding, windows, furnace, storm door, and garage side door. Inside, you'll find a bright and cozy layout with original hardwood floors hiding beneath the carpet in the living room and bedrooms-just waiting to be restored to their timeless beauty. The eat-in kitchen offers a cozy space for daily meals and is brimming with vintage character. The welcoming living room is flooded with natural light. The 2 sunny bedrooms sit adjacent to the recently updated full bath. Downstairs, the full basement includes a finished rec room - a great spot for movie nights, game room, playroom, or home office + tons of storage. Out back, enjoy a spacious flat yard - ideal for relaxing, gardening and hosting summer barbecues. The 2-car tandem garage offers enough space for cars, bikes, tools and workshop. Whether you're just starting out or looking to downsize, this comfortable ranch offers the perfect space to call home. All this, while conveniently close to several parks, restaurants, the elementary school, and the public library.
