Mid-Century Rambler Home in Forest Hills! With its gently-pitched roof lines, tons of windows, terrazzo floors, and "exposed beams," this property is the textbook definition of a mid-century rambler. Many updates have been done but the home retains much of its mid-century charm. Plenteous sunlight and vaulted ceilings framed by exposed "beams" on gently sloped ceilings greet you as you enter the Living Room of the home through the front door. Next to the Living Room is the Breakfast Nook, an ideal spot to enjoy your morning coffee. The Kitchen which features a Breakfast Bar, was updated some years ago. Appliances include a wall oven and cooktop with a range hood, refrigerator, and dishwasher. The next room, a Multi-Purpose Room, was most recently used as a Family Room but it could also serve as a large Dining Room, a Media Room, etc. At one end of the Multi-Purpose Room, a large Utility Room houses the Laundry Hook-Ups and provides a ton of storage. The Primary Bedroom boasts a huge Walk-In Closet with an entrance to Bathroom 2 which also has a doorway leading into the Multi-Purpose Room. Bathroom 2 has a shower (no tub) but, with a bit of effort, could be reconfigured along with the Walk-In Closet, turning the Primary Bedroom into a Primary Suite with a dedicated en-suite Bathroom. Bedroom 2 features windows on two walls, gathering tons of natural light. Here, the light fixtures, light switch, and terrazzo floor (seen in the closet) hearken back to the home's mid-century heritage. Bedroom 3 features a built-in desk and is rumored to have been the builder's office during the development of the neighborhood. It's a bit on the "cozy" side but provides plenty of room for a small bedroom, an office, a nursery, a homeschool room, or a variety of other uses. Bathroom 1, the hallway bathroom, appears to have been updated some years ago but the colorful tile helps to retain some of its "retro" vibe. What had once been a window in the tub and shower surround has been converted into a shower shelf. Exposed beams and a skylight adorn the bathroom ceiling. Exterior features begin with the outstanding curb appeal from the lush lawn, paver driveway extension, and front porch pergola. Enjoy some "front porch sitting" under the pergola with the relaxing sounds of the babbling pond in the background. A 37' carport provides ample covered parking for two respectably sized vehicles parked in tandem, and the shed provides storage for lawn equipment and other toys. The back yard is "mostly" fenced with only a short portion of fence across the side yard needed to secure the back yard for your four-legged loved ones. This home has been meticulously maintained, inside and out, with the following updated items: Roof, modified bitumen 2014; windows 2015; A/C 2021; water heater 2022; paver driveway extension 2008. Located in the Forest Hills community, it is a short commute to downtown and a plethora of amenities are nearby: Forest Hills Park Community Center, Forest Hills Aquatic Center, Busch Gardens and Adventure Island, USF, USPS, schools, shopping, restaurants, and the list goes on. Better hurry! A great home in this condition and location at this price range won't last long. Make your appointment to view it right away.
