Affordable, Accessible, and Full of Potential! Step into homeownership with this smartly located East Metro gem! Nestled in a friendly neighborhood next to Lorraine Park and its splash pad, this home offers small-town charm with quick, easy access to the entire metro—no matter where you're headed. Enjoy convenient one-level living with three bedrooms on the main floor, plus a bright, functional layout. The kitchen offers plenty of storage, Corian countertops, and a brand-new gas range. An informal dining area with a built-in buffet adds even more storage and charm. The updated tub and shower, along with abundant natural light throughout, make this home as comfortable as it is practical. Outside, enjoy a new deck and retaining wall, along with a private backyard featuring a patio and plenty of space for RV, boat, or trailer parking—perfect for outdoor living and weekend fun. The showstopper? A huge 2.5-car garage with unique access from a quiet rear cul-de-sac (not a cramped alleyway). There’s plenty of storage for all your toys and adventure gear, plus an attached workshop or storage area for hobbies and DIY projects. Downstairs, the lower level is packed with potential—already roughed in for a second kitchen and a 3/4 bath—making it ideal for a future rental, in-law suite, or flexible guest space. This is truly the best value for your money in a tight-knit, first-ring suburb known for its community spaces, seasonal celebrations, and hands-down the best city snow-plowing in the Metro!
