## Description

### Agent Description
This Mid-Century ranch style home has everything you need! Great location near downtown, Gray's Lake and Water Works Park, local grocers and restaurants, and schools. Sits up high on the hill so you can see downtown from your front yard. On the main level, there are refinished hardwood floors, 3 BR, a 3/4 bath, and kitchen with access to back yard and big deck. The walk-out lower level could be separate living quarters with a non-conforming 4th BR, a 3/4 bath, living room, and kitchenette. Covered patio that walks out to the fenced yard (new 6' cedar fence). A 3rd parking space for extra cars and a huge 24X30 garage -perfect for a workshop. Great opportunity for multi-generational living, downsizing, or first time homebuyers! Newer roof and electrical, fence new 2025. Mechanicals approximately. 7 yrs. old.
