Wow! This home is essentially new construction except for the solid foundation! Taken down to the studs & completely remodeled, this 4 bedroom 2 bathroom home is a great value. New roof, new sewer, new HVAC, new windows, new almost everything! Great curb appeal draws you up to the front door where you enter into the open concept floor plan of living room, dining area & kitchen with quartz counters that includes a pop up electrical outlet & USB port. Did I mention that everything is new? 3 nicely sized bedrooms & a full bathroom complete the main floor. Downstairs you'll find a cozy family room, the 4th bedroom & another 3/4 bathroom. The clean utility room comes with you guessed it, a brand new HVAC system & water heater! The oversized 1 car garage with a brand new driveway frames a private backyard. Conveniently located in the Waveland area, you will love being able to get to both 235 & 35/80 in just minutes, but far enough away not to hear them. Schedule your showing today! All information is obtained from public records & seller.
