[ SOLD for $455,000 on 12/28/2018 ] You’ll feel like you’re on a year-round vacation in this custom “Wood Streets” ranch-style 1953 pool home, built by Harry Marsh. It’s situated on almost half an acre, one of the largest lots in the neighborhood.
“Pride of Ownership” perfectly describes this 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home with just under 1900 sq ft, which boasts a spacious living room with fireplace and newer bamboo flooring throughout, separate family room, central air/heat, and an eat-in kitchen (stainless steel appliances included) as well as a separate formal dining room. Two of the three bedrooms are quite large, with a remodeled 3/4 bathroom adjoining the smaller 3rd bedroom which is currently being used as a craft room.
The secondary back yard (don’t forget to walk thru the fence on the other side of the pool) is a nature lover’s dream, so if you appreciate numerous fruit and nut-bearing trees, and strolling through the grass in your bare feet, then look no further. The lot size is 18,731 sq ft (.43/acre).
A 2-car garage with workshop and laundry is attached to the house, so talk about convenience! And finally, the view up Maplewood Place, the street perpendicular to this property, is eye candy with its gorgeous and shady canopy of trees. Walking distance to elementary school and shopping.
