Wow, what a house and what a location! All brick ranch centrally located in sought-after Town & Country area of Bloomington. The entire house received a full remodel in 2020/2021 including a brand new kitchen, all new lighting, all new doors and trim, all new drywall, all new electrical, all new ductwork, all new HVAC system, all new roof, and all new flooring and all new paint. The kitchen was completely swapped from where it once was and made into a fantastic open layout with tons of natural light from all of the brand windows. All of the appliances are staying and all of them were new in 2021. Lovely soft-close cabinets and drawers were used and a full server/buffet style area was added. The front room still has its exquisite bayed large window and is the perfect room for everyone to enjoy. Every bathroom was completely remodeled and the primary suite full bathroom even has a walk-in bathtub. The hallway full bathroom has a double-sized step-in shower for added convenience. The basement offers plenty of storage space and could easily be finished for added space to enjoy. There is a beautiful main-level laundry room with a washer and dryer that stays and has built-in cabinets and a cheerful window. The side load two-car garage has an added ramp into the home, making this home a "zero steps on the main level" home. Come see this beautiful home that has been extensively remodeled and is ready for its next owner to call it HOME!
