Yet the flowerbeds still have plenty of room for you to leave your personal mark. A gated backyard – complete with arbors -- contains a healthy garden with raised strawberry bed.
Best of all, the incredible 16’ x 20’ raised covered deck provides the utmost in outdoor living. Truly, it almost becomes a 3-season room. Plenty of room for a table to seat 10 -- it already has the porch swing just waiting for you and that special someone. Placed right off the kitchen, it’s an entertainer’s delight.
Inside, this 3-bedroom one bath charmer has carpeting throughout except in the master and second bedroom where the home’s original beautiful hardwood floors are showcased. (Hardwood floors remain under the carpeted living and third bedroom.)
Best of all, the kitchen has BRAND NEW APPLIANCES – Kenmore range, Whirlpool refrigerator and built-in Kenmore microwave/hood. It also has dishwasher and garbage disposal. The cozy, eat-in kitchen has Monet-inspired décor that makes it feel like a retreat. Ceiling-height cabinets provide lots of storage and the laundry/pantry area is attached to the kitchen.
Every room (except the bathroom) has 2 windows to bring in exceptional natural light. The home has freshly painted woodwork and walls.
This home also has a separate workshop converted from a 1-1/2 car garage. Complete with heat, cable/broadband/internet and phone outlets it’s great for a workshop, home office or home-based business. It even has its own storage room.
It also has a detached 2-car garage with rear entrance and walkway to the house. The front driveway provides great off-street parking for 3 – 4 cars. Unlike other slab homes in the area, this home has a crawl space.
The roof (complete tear-off) was completed in 2005. The central air system was just replaced in 2000. The home is wired for cable/broadband Internet and has DirecTV dishes. The exterior has country blue paint on the body (composite siding) with freshly painted white trim.
Most people fall in love with the property and then the neighborhood where folks have raised their kids together for years. This is a place where people keep up their homes and throw block parties from time-to-time. They’re the best of the Midwest, with a “look-after-each-other” attitude – and proud of it.
