Welcome to 38270 N North Shore Ave, a move-in-ready raised ranch with the kind of space, updates and personality that get your attention as soon as you walk in. Some houses make you work to see the potential. This one looks great as soon as you pull up in the driveway. From the sharp curb appeal and newer siding and windows to the bright, open interior, this home has been cared for - and it shows. Step inside and head upstairs, where the sun-filled living room opens into a kitchen and dining area that feels made for everyday life. Stainless steel appliances, warm cabinetry, beautiful flooring and plenty of counter space keep the kitchen clean, functional, and open, while Double doors pull you outside to the freshly resurfaced deck overlooking the large, fenced backyard. And then there's the lower level...this isn't some dark basement you forget about. It's an English Basement with full-size windows, a huge family room, third bedroom and full bath with walk-in shower. This lower level gives you an entire second living space - movie nights, game days, guests, home office... take your pick. There's even a separate laundry/utility room tucked away so the living space stays functional living space. Outside, the spacious fenced backyard gives you plenty of room to relax, entertain or let the dogs and/or kids run around, but here's something you wouldn't know just by looking at it: the property continues approximately 33 feet north beyond the fence line alongside the garage, giving you even more land and breathing room than the fenced yard suggests. Add in the newer detached 25' x 20' garage, freshly resurfaced deck, long driveway and storage shed, and this home starts checking a lot of boxes for a low price! Three bedrooms. Two full baths. Two finished levels. A great big fenced yard. A newer garage. And a whole lot more space than you might expect. Come see it in person. Just don't be surprised when you fall in love...quick closing possible!
