Description

Completely renovated inside and out, this gorgeous, mid-century modern all-brick ranch sits on a spacious double lot and is truly move-in ready. Every inch of the home has been thoughtfully updated, including brand-new stainless steel appliances, new flooring throughout, all of the wood floors have been refinished, fresh interior and exterior paint, updated lighting, and fully remodeled kitchen and bathrooms. Additionally, all of the windows have been replaced, and the landscaping has been cut back and refreshed to enhance curb appeal. The main level offers three bedrooms and 1.5 beautifully updated baths, along with formal living and dining spaces and a cozy wood-burning fireplace. The stunning, redesigned kitchen features modern finishes and an eat-in area that flows seamlessly into the living spaces - perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. The basement has been fully refinished, adding valuable living space and a new full bathroom, with a large recreation room, storage room, closet space, utility room, and bonus room with fireplace that can be used as another cozy living area, guest space, bedroom, or home office. Outside, enjoy the renovated screened porch overlooking the private backyard, providing a peaceful setting to relax or host gatherings. Major mechanical updates include a new electric panel (2025), water heater (2023), roof and gutters (2022), HVAC (2010). The attached two-car garage includes a smart garage door opener. Located in a nice, quiet neighborhood within walking distance of parks and close to downtown, shopping, entertainment, Rock Valley College, and Rockford University - this home offers the perfect blend of modern updates, comfort, and long-term value.
