About this home

Easy one-level living, thoughtful updates, and plenty of space to settle in and enjoy. This beautifully refreshed 3-bedroom, 2-bath Cottage Grove home feels warm and welcoming from the moment you step inside, with hardwood floors, abundant natural light, and a spacious living room with a large bay window. The updated kitchen blends style and function with restained maple cabinetry, quartz countertops, tile backsplash, updated hardware, and a newer sink, faucet, and disposal. Heated ceramic tile in the kitchen and both bathrooms adds everyday comfort, while refreshed baths, fresh paint, recessed lighting, ceiling fans, and 6-panel wood doors give the home a polished, move-in-ready feel. The primary bedroom offers a generous walk-in closet with an organizational system. Downstairs, the finished lower level adds flexible living space plus valuable storage — perfect for movie nights, hobbies, a home office, or room to spread out. Outside, enjoy a large, flat yard with a 14x12 deck, vinyl privacy fence, and fire pit. The two-car garage adds functionality with a rear pull-through door and EV charger. Major updates include a Carrier furnace (2022), roof (2021), Rheem water heater (2021), 200-amp electrical service, and smart-home features. Conveniently located near parks, shopping, dining, and everyday amenities.

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.
