Property Description
The welcoming living room features warm wood-paneled walls, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, and a custom built-in dinette. The kitchen opens to the large back deck, making outdoor grilling and entertaining a breeze, while the screened porch overlooks the fenced front yard with established landscaping.
Need extra space? The approximately 150-square-foot walk-up attic offers endless possibilities as a home office, art studio, hobby room, or additional storage.
One of the home's features is the expansive 870-square-foot walk-out basement with interior access, 220-volt electrical service, lighting, and abundant workspace. Whether you're a woodworker, artist, craftsperson, or simply need room for bikes, kayaks, and outdoor gear, this flexible space is ready for your vision.
A wrap-around driveway provides ample parking and easy basement access, while the covered carport offers a shaded gathering spot or convenient covered entry during inclement weather.
Recent improvements include a new roof, 6-inch gutters, and HVAC system (2026), providing added value and peace of mind. This move-in-ready home offers the perfect combination of charm, functionality, and an unbeatable South location. Read more about Arden in listing documentation.
