PRICE DROP!!! Charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath home in Richardson Heights on a nearly quarter-acre lot, offering neighborhood character, thoughtful updates, privacy, and exceptional indoor-outdoor living. Set back from the road beneath mature trees, the home features a spacious front yard, landscaped beds, and a covered front porch, creating a welcoming first impression and a quieter feel. Enjoy a walkable location near local dining, coffee shops, bars, grocery stores, shopping, and everyday conveniences, with quick access to US-75. Inside, the home is bright, fresh, and move-in ready with hardwood flooring in the hallway and two bedrooms, durable tile throughout the remaining living areas, and no carpet. The connected living, dining, and kitchen spaces provide an easy flow for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen offers granite countertops, white subway tile, stainless steel appliances, abundant cabinetry, updated fixtures, fresh paint, and a new dishwasher installed in 2026. Both full bathrooms have been renovated, and the flexible third bedroom works well as a bedroom, guest room, or home office. A climate-controlled laundry and utility room with electricity and lighting provides valuable additional space beyond the listed square footage. HVAC replaced in 2023. The backyard is the true standout: a private garden-style retreat designed for relaxing and entertaining. A screened-in porch overlooks mature landscaping, a hot tub, koi pond, fire pit seating area, stone and paver walkways, and a storage shed with ramp. The privacy fence was extended to 10 feet in 2025, while rear alley access provides gated backyard entry and utility access. A long driveway and garage-workshop offer flexible parking, storage, and project space. This distinctive Richardson Heights home brings together the updates, privacy, lot size, and lifestyle features buyers rarely find in one property.
