As far as Kirkwood goes, for the price point, the location couldn't be any better! Walk to Nathanial Reed Bakery for breakfast & coffee. Turn left out of the home's front door and immediately be at North Kirkwood Middle School. And enjoy a short drive to all of the convenience that Manchester Rd has to offer! The 3bd/1.5ba, mostly brick ranch has so much potential! The large corner lot allows plenty of room to spread out while the two car attached garage with newer opener (2025) offers the luxury & security of attached parking. The wood floors will be the first characteristic that catches the eye, as they welcome you into the great room and lead you throughout the majority of the main level. The nostalgic kitchen with pantry flows seamlessly into the dining room creating an inviting entertaining space. Separating itself from many of the other homes in the area is the hearth room at the rear of the home including built-in's, a wood-burning fireplace, and sliding glass door access to the private backyard patio. Completing the main level are two comfortably sized secondary bedrooms, an update full hall bathroom, and a primary bedroom suite with walk-in closet and half bath. A dry, partially finished lower level includes a rec room, an off-shoot room perfect for an office or play area, cedar closet, and a large laundry room/storage area with utility sink. Putting a bow on this rare opportunity is a brand new electrical panel, 1yo furnace & water heater, and fresh paint throughout most of the interior and some of the exterior!
