Room to grow, space to breathe, and upgrades that make everyday life easier, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath single-family home is built for the next chapter. From the kitchen addition and classic built-ins to a sun room that doubles beautifully as a large home office, every corner is designed to give a growing household more flexibility, comfort, and places to land. Inside, you will find a true dining room with built-in cabinets, a butler pantry, a cedar food pantry, and solid oak doors throughout. The kitchen addition creates the kind of flow that works for busy mornings and relaxed evenings, and all appliances stay, including a Speed Queen washer and dryer. Bathrooms are thoughtfully updated with a jet tub and a new shower, while dual on-demand hot water heaters keep hot water ready when you need it, including a recirculation line that helps deliver hot water right at the faucet. Big-ticket improvements add peace of mind, too: a 4-year-old AC condenser, new 200 amp service, top of chimney tuck pointed 2022, and a power-vented attic. Outside, enjoy a generous 0.45-acre setting with practical extras that make a difference. A breezeway connects the home to a true 24 x 24 two-car garage, complete with new door openers and a metal fire door for an added layer of protection. The garage exterior and interior were just painted in 2024, and the home also features a new roof, gutters, downspouts, soffit, and aluminum trim completed by Boss Roofing. Need storage and space for hobbies? You have a shed (approximately 12 x 14) on a cement slab for all the outdoor activites. For added flexibility, the basement includes a gas washer and dryer hookup. When you want to get outside without going far, the river is just 2 block away, and a park is 4 blocks away, perfect for fresh air, quick play breaks, or a peaceful reset. For weekend plans and day trips, the Quad Cities is about 30 minutes away and Galena is an hour away. If you have been waiting for a home with space, smart upgrades, and the kind of character you cannot replicate, schedule your showing and see how effortlessly this one fits real life.
