Welcome to Roylene Acres — a neighborhood with heart just outside the beltline! If you've been dreaming of a classic mid-century home in a warm, welcoming community without the restrictions of an HOA, this is the one for you. Roylene Acres is the kind of place where neighbors wave from the porch, share garden harvests, and come together each summer for an old-fashioned ice cream social. This beloved 4-bedroom brick ranch has been cherished by one family for decades and is ready for a new chapter. Inside, you'll find original hardwood floors that add timeless character, a spacious eat-in kitchen perfect for family meals, and a beautiful bay window that fills the home with natural light. The large, fenced backyard offers plenty of room to play, garden, or relax — and you can even bring your chickens! The two-car carport provides great flexibility (it could easily be enclosed for a garage), and there's no shortage of storage with both a carport shed and a large backyard shed complete with a loft. The primary bathroom received a light refresh in 2022, roof replaced in 2004, windows replaced in 2009, duct work in 2012, siding in 2017 and hot water heater in 2021. The rest of the home is ready for your personal touch. Conveniently located close to shopping, dining, and easy access to I-40, this home offers small-town charm with everyday convenience. Home is sold as is.
