About This Home

Walk to the lake from this adorable ranch home that's move-in ready with fresh paint and updates throughout! Kitchen with maple cabinets, Corian countertops, and black appliances. Main level has all hardwood floors, an updated bathroom and ceiling fans in all 3 bedrooms. Both the upstairs family room & the finished lower level family room have fireplaces with gas starters. The oversized 2-car garage has tons of extra space, perfect for a workshop and storage. Sitting on a great corner lot, it's just a few blocks from the lake/Main Beach, where you can enjoy swimming, boating and free concerts ; delight in the Sunday Farmers Market at the nearby Dole Mansion ; also, the Elementary and Middle Schools are only a few blocks away! Great location and tons of charm!
