Pride of ownership is present everywhere in this charming USDA eligible ranch home minutes north of Columbia and just outside city limits. What's not to like about these updates with two living areas in this functional floor plan on an ACRE+ to boot! A few highlights include, new main level kitchen appliances, refinished main level cabinets, new roof, new paint (inside and out), new tile work, new 200 Amp electrical panel, A/C evaporator coil/condenser unit replacement in 2023, many new doors, lighting fixtures and more! The spacious, mostly finished walkout basement has its own standalone driveway leading to the large backyard, perfect for an extra vehicle, trailer, etc. What awaits below could be an in-law suite or potential rental income, including a functional 2nd kitchen, rec room, full bathroom and 2 non-conforming bedrooms (in addition to the 3 conforming bedrooms on the main level!) The best of both world DO EXIST in that you have easy access to Hwy 63- a quick 15 minutes to MU and downtown or two minutes from relaxing at Finger Lakes State Park. A peaceful setting with a deck, back patio and wildlife sightings await you on this privacy fenced, tree lined, 1+ acre lot with mature trees (incl. peach, cherry and walnut) and a fire pit. Come tour this home in-person to truly appreciate before it's too late!
