Located in the highly desirable Virginia Village neighborhood, this classic brick ranch home offers the perfect blend of mid-century charm and modern updates. Sitting on a generous 8,250 sq ft lot, this 2,400 sq ft, 5-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home is move-in ready with thoughtful improvements inside and out.
Step inside to discover original hardwood floors throughout the main level, abundant natural light from high-end windows, and beautiful touches like crown molding and a refinished solid wood front door. The open-concept kitchen, dining, and living room create a spacious, airy feel, anchored by a cozy wood-burning fireplace and a natural gas-powered stove and heating system. The master bedroom features an en-suite half bath, while the main level bathroom offers the luxury of heated floors.
The finished basement provides impressive flexibility, featuring a large bedroom that could easily serve as a second master, a spacious laundry room with built-ins, a high-end LG washer and dryer, a second refrigerator (new in 2024), and abundant storage. New lighting fixtures have been added throughout the home for a bright, welcoming atmosphere.
Outdoors, the professionally xeriscaped yards offer colorful blooms from lavender, flower bushes, succulents, lilies, tulips, dahlias, and more—without the maintenance of traditional grass. The backyard is an outdoor oasis featuring a large patio for hosting, a covered patio area, 80 square feet of raised garden beds (easily removable if desired), and durable turf grass. A sturdy, high-quality fence encloses the space for added privacy and security.
Car enthusiasts and hobbyists will appreciate the three-car garage setup, including a large two-car detached garage with an electric/battery hybrid gate and an attached one-car garage.
