About this home

Spacious mid-century modern ranch offering nearly 4,000 finished square feet and all living facilities on one level! The main floor features three bedrooms, two beautifully remodeled bathrooms, a large kitchen, and an open living and dining area centered around a striking double-sided fireplace and vaulted, beamed ceilings. The living and dining room flooring has been removed and the subfloor painted, giving the next owner the freedom to select flooring that fits their style. Downstairs, the expansive finished lower level is ready to be refreshed and made your own, featuring a massive family and recreation area, wood-burning fireplace, kitchenette, 3/4 bath, laundry, and shuffleboard built directly into the floor. Major updates include a new furnace and central air in 2020, water heater in 2018, and a rubber roof that's approximately 11 years old. The insulated two-stall garage also has a gas heater that is not currently connected (Can run a gas line or buy a separate fuel tank for it). Outside, enjoy a spacious yard with mature trees and plenty of room to relax or entertain. The living room TV and sound system, pool table, basement couch, refrigerator, and freezer will remain with the property, making this home ready for its next chapter!

How SODL buyer credits work

When you buy with SODL, the brokerage charges a flat $3,000 platform fee at closing. The remaining buyer-side commission (typically 3% of the purchase price) is credited directly back to you at closing, reducing the cash you bring to the table.

  • Tour homes with SODL’s flexible showing network
  • Submit offers and manage your transaction through the platform
  • Keep more money at closing through transparent flat-fee pricing

A clear, modern way to buy with expert guidance and meaningful savings.
