## Description

### Agent Description
Welcome home to this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch nestled in an established and highly desirable neighborhood just two blocks from Clark Park. This home blends modern updates with timeless charm. Step inside to an inviting, open living and dining area-created by opening the original wall-perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen features sleek black granite countertops with white cabinetry, a stylish new backsplash, a skylight, and a clean, contemporary feel that flows effortlessly into the main living space. The main living area showcases durable luxury vinyl plank flooring (with original hardwood floors underneath), while the fully remodeled first-floor bathroom offers a fresh, modern retreat. Major mechanical updates provide peace of mind, including a new HVAC system (Fall 2024), new gutters (Fall 2024), basement remodel including new basement windows (2026), and newly installed French drain (Fall 2024). Curb appeal shines with a freshly painted exterior and a newly added front deck. Out back, enjoy a fully fenced yard with an 8' horizontal wood privacy fence, a spacious deck shaded by a mature tree, and a shed for additional storage. Complete with an attached 1-car garage, this move-in ready home has been tastefully updated and is ready for its next chapter.
