About this home
Single Family · Built 1943
Fantastic RANCH in the AU area, that will absolutely THRILL you! When you see it from the street you may be tempted to think it is just an ordinary ranch. Just wait until you step in and see the vaulted, beamed ceilings soaring high above your head! The dramatic spiral staircase leads to the office upstairs, giving a birds eye view of the main living area. Updated kitchen includes all appliances. Three very generous bedrooms on the main floor. Primary bedroom has it's own full bathroom. There is plenty of closet space. The partial basement is finished, and features a living area, a bar, and a full bathroom. The fenced backyard is lovely and private, and features a large patio and firepit. Yes, this home was built in 1943, but was almost entirely updated in 2011.
