Wow! Great home, great updates, and at a great price in the Grove Elementary district! You will enjoy living here and entertaining friends and family in this wonderful space. You will notice the fabulous condition as soon as you step inside. The main floor includes a lovely living room and kitchen. There is a very spacious 16' x 20' family room with lots of windows. A 4th bedroom is possible with just a little finishing work. You may enjoy the fenced and shaded backyard from the large deck - a new shed was added here in 2024 for extra storage. With all the work that the current owners have done, you may move in and enjoy this beautiful home with great peace of mind. Professional fresh painting and new flooring in 2025. Furnace was replaced in 2023, roof was replaced in 2020, most appliances are newer including the washer and dryer that were replaced in 2022, sliding door was replaced in 2015. Updated kitchen and bathrooms too! Fabulous location is so convenient to shopping, restaurants, and Shepard Park, playground and dog park.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
