This one's got a lot of charm packed into a comfortable size. The open concept living area flows right into the kitchen and dining space, so you're never far from the action. The kitchen itself is a standout with stainless steel appliances, a large island with plenty of counter space, and no shortage of storage. Both bedrooms are spacious primary suites, each with its own full bathroom, and you'll appreciate having a separate laundry area instead of squeezing it into a hallway or closet. Step outside to an extended covered concrete patio, ideal for evenings outside no matter the weather, and a fenced backyard. This home is also set up for the future: solar panels are already installed, and there's an EV charger, so you can plug in right at home. A security system is included. Note that the buyer will need to assume the solar panel loan.
Adorable 2 bedroom 2 bath home located in Merkel. This home features a large open concept living area leading into your kitchen and dining area, a beautiful kitchen with stainless steel appliances, a large island with plenty of storage and counter space, a separate laundry area, spacious bedrooms and a large fenced in back yard. The shed in the backyard is included, along with the security system.
