First time ever offered for sale! This well-cared-for home has been lovingly maintained by its longtime owner and offers a great combination of character, important updates, and room to make it your own. Located just east of I-229 in an established neighborhood with mature trees, the property features a large backyard, detached one-stall garage, and a covered patio perfect for enjoying the outdoors. Inside, the bright main level features hardwood flooring throughout the living room and hallway, two bedrooms, and a full bathroom. The kitchen was remodeled with Schrock soft-close cabinetry, tile flooring, updated countertops, double sink, lighting, and tile backsplash, creating a functional space with plenty of storage and workspace. Downstairs, the finished lower level offers a large, flexible space with carpet, a gas fireplace, built-in storage, and an egress window. With the egress already in place, there is an opportunity to frame a third bedroom while still maintaining additional family or recreation space. The basement also includes laundry, a shower, and gas stove for convenience. Many of the big-ticket items have already been addressed, including a new roof in 2025, furnace and A/C in 2019, and replacement of the main sewer/water lines. The detached garage also features newer wiring. Outside, the spacious backyard provides plenty of room to enjoy, including space for a garden and a covered concrete patio area. With its mature surroundings, long list of improvements, and opportunities to add your own finishing touches, this is a home that has been cared for over the years and is ready for its next chapter.
