This quaint ranch home on quiet tree lined street backs up to Prairie Lake Park. It offers two bedrooms and one bathroom that was updated in 2023. Walk into the charming home that opens into the living room and dining room combo. The kitchen is just off the dining room and also has an eating area. The two bedrooms are both spacious with nicely sized closets. The entire home except the kitchen has hardwood floors. Laundry located to the side of the kitchen. Walk out to the fully fenced backyard and be amazed! It boasts many perennial flowers and begins to stun as the spring begins. The backyard also features a second structure that is perfect for an extra office space, storage or additional hangout space. The windows in the second structure are being replaced. The house backs up to Prairie Lakes Park for ultimate privacy and green space. One car detached garage (new garage door being installed). New roof in 2025.
