A home that simply makes sense.
This fully renovated 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath River Ridge residence offers an easy, confident path to homeownership—a great space for relocating professionals and anyone seeking low maintenance, durable construction, and a smooth daily flow.
Updated from top to bottom in 2023, the home combines clean mid-century design with modern efficiency. Durable, easy-care flooring, energy-efficient windows, and contemporary finishes reduce upkeep while creating a calm, polished interior. The open-concept living and dining areas are filled with natural light, making the space feel both functional and welcoming.
The kitchen features updated cabinetry and stainless steel appliances, designed for everyday ease rather than excess. All major systems have already been addressed, including updated electrical and plumbing (2023), a new HVAC system (2025), and a metal roof installed in 2024—offering long-term durability and typically lower insurance costs.
Outside, the spacious lot provides manicured landscaping, a long driveway, and covered parking—simple conveniences that make daily life smoother. Located in the highly sought-after Upstream Subdivision, the home offers quick access to Jefferson Highway, medical centers, military and tech corridors, Harahan amenities, and the popular Elmwood Shopping Center. Nearby riverfront access, coffee shops, and grocery options add to the effortless lifestyle appeal.
Move-in ready, thoughtfully renovated, and designed for buyers who value efficiency and peace of mind—this is a home that removes friction and lets life flow more easily. Experience it in person and see how easy the next chapter can feel.
