Escape to the serenity of country living without giving up the convenience of town in this completely remodeled 1-bedroom, 1-bath ranch on a peaceful 0.61-acre lot just outside Marion. Whether you're a first-time buyer or someone looking for simplicity and charm, this home checks all the boxes. Inside, everything is brand new — from the plush carpet and LVP flooring to the paint, trim, outlets, ceiling fans, and light fixtures. The front entry opens into a spacious living room — the perfect spot to relax, entertain, or unwind after a day spent in the garden. The kitchen has been refreshed with a blend of new and newly painted cabinetry, a stainless steel electric range, a new sink, and warm butcher block-style counters, offering both style and functionality. A stackable washer/dryer hookup is ready in the utility room, and the bathroom shines with a new vanity and tasteful finishes. Need a little more space down the road? The attic offers potential for finishing — ideal for extra storage, a hobby area, or future expansion to suit your needs. Step outside and discover the true gem: an oversized backyard complete with a large red barn shed (14'8'' x 20'), additional outbuilding, garden-ready tilled area, shady mature trees, and a peaceful picnic bench. Enjoy the outdoors from your covered deck or watch the sunset from the welcoming front porch. With a private well and water softener, private septic system, and a newer furnace, this home is both efficient and move-in ready. And you're less than 10 minutes from shopping, dining, and more in Marion. It's country comfort with real-world convenience — a rare find at this price!
