Property Description

COMING SOON w/ Showings to begin Friday; however, you can take the 3D tour today! Tucked back off the street beneath mature shade trees on a quarter-acre lot, this move-in ready 3-bedroom ranch in Swansea offers easy one-level living with no interior stairs, a big yard with a fenced backyard, a flexible floor plan and a long list of recent updates. Since 2024, the sellers have replaced the roof (2025), furnace and central air (serviced twice a year), electrical panel, rear sliding door, garage door opener, dishwasher, and the interior lighting and ceiling fans, refreshed interior paint, added a Google Nest thermostat, and improved the crawl space with a vapor barrier, sump pump and dehumidifier. The home has already passed its Swansea occupancy inspection. The front door opens to a bright living room with plush carpet, a gas-log fireplace as the focal point and a large picture window. Arched doorways lead to a spacious kitchen with an abundance of cabinetry, tile backsplash, double-bowl sink, range with vent hood, new dishwasher. A laundry closet with washer/dryer hookups sits right off the kitchen, and the adjoining dining area has its own side entrance to a paver patio and the driveway. LVP flooring runs through the kitchen, dining area and bath. Two carpeted bedrooms each offer two closets and plenty of natural light from thermal double-pane, double-hung windows. The updated hall bath features a newer tub/shower surround with built-in shelves, newer fixtures and toilet, and a tall storage cabinet. At the back of the home, the third bedroom is a true flex space - perfect as a bedroom, home office, den or hobby room - with a large closet, a new sliding glass door to the covered deck and direct access to the one-car attached garage. The drywalled garage includes attic access, with additional drop-stair attic access in the hall. Out back, the fenced backyard is private and quiet, and a storage shed that stays gives the mower and garden tools a home of their own. The fencing and the original shed show their age, may need some repairs, and are being sold as-is. Some photos have been virtually staged.
