$339,900 Price reduced $10,000! Sprawling 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom ranch-style (approx 1900 sq-ft) custom home built by Harry Marsh in 1953, on almost half an acre! This turnkey “Wood Streets” pool home boasts almost two dozen fruit-bearing trees, and the backyard is overflowing with colorful wisteria, crape myrtle, hummingbirds, and more!
Walk through the front door into the large living room with brick fireplace, hardwood floors under carpet, and formal dining area with chandelier and built-in display for plates and/or trinkets. Bright kitchen with original knotty pine cabinetry (and lots of it), along with two built-in knotty pine hutches in the nook area. Lovely family room overlooking the expansive backyard with covered patio and inground olympic-sized pool with diving board.
Big ticket items have already been taken care of, so all you have to do is move in, unpack and not worry about anything for quite a few years. Newer air conditioning and heating unit, roof, fence, attic-blown insulation, exterior paint, etc. This home is NOT a foreclosure or a short sale, nor is this a distress sale!
The lot size is 18,730 sq ft (.43/acre) with newer sprinklers, wisteria-covered arbor (in the springtime), and numerous mature fruit-bearing trees. The huge level lot is separated into two yards by a newer wooden fence. One section of yard contains the covered patio, pool, arbor-covered hammock, rose garden, and ideal year-round entertaining area, while the back section of yard consists of many trees and an expansive grassy area perfect for the kids and pets to run around or for family football games!
Last but not least, a 2-car attached garage with separate room for storage and/or workshop. Laundry area and utility sink are easily accessible, and there is also a smaller separate room just outside the back of the garage that is used as a convenient changing room for pool guests!
This home is lovely and well-maintained; Mr. and Mrs. Clean live here! You will not be disappointed if you are looking for a home that feels like “home” yet is perfect for entertaining family and friends as well.
