This well-kept 2005 Four Seasons manufactured home offers 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths and 1,680 square feet, all on one level, under mature shade trees and with an unusual amount of space to relax outdoors.

Monthly costs are easy to plan for, with lot rent of $560, annual home taxes of about $126, and average utilities of roughly $212 for electric and $58 for water. Step through the double-door entry into the 19.5 x 12.5 living room, centered on a gas fireplace with a stacked-stone surround, raised hearth and mantel. Oak laminate flooring, crown molding, six-panel oak doors and ceiling fans add warmth throughout, and all window shades and ceiling fans stay.

All kitchen appliances are included: GE Profile refrigerator, GE glass-top electric range, GE microwave (2023) and Frigidaire dishwasher (2021). The 12.6 x 15 primary suite offers oak laminate flooring, fresh paint, a board-and-batten accent wall and a walk-in closet. Its private bath has been refreshed with new marble-look flooring, new faucets, a new door on the walk-in shower and a new comfort-height toilet, plus a double vanity and a large linen closet. Three more bedrooms share a full hall bath with a tub/shower combo, new marble-look flooring and a new comfort-height toilet. One bedroom sits off the living room behind French doors, making it ideal as an office, media room or guest space. The laundry room has new marble-look flooring (2025), cabinets, shelving and its own exterior door. Outside is where this home really shines. Relax on the 16 x 10 screened deck, gather around the 16-foot round brick and paver fire-pit patio, or enjoy the 16.6 x 10.9 three-season sunroom at the end of the covered carport, which has parking for up to 4 vehicles.

2 Beds ⋅ 1 Baths ⋅ 26068328 MLS ⋅ ACTIVE Status
Welcome home to this charming 2 bed, 1 bath ranch in the established Crossroad Terrace subdivision! Set on a lot framed by mature trees, with a long driveway and an attached 2 car garage, this home offers single-level living, meaningful updates already in place, and plenty of opportunity to build equity as you make it your own. Curb appeal starts the moment you pull in. Crisp white siding with brick accents, a carriage-style garage door, and tidy landscaping create a classic, welcoming look. The front porch features a sunroom, a bright bonus space to enjoy your morning coffee, curl up with a good book, or grow a few houseplants while staying comfortable as the seasons change. Step inside to a spacious living room where hardwood floors stretch the length of the room toward a striking focal point: a painted brick fireplace with a raised hearth, glass doors, and a built-in nook perfect for displaying décor. The fireplace is non-functioning and decorative only, making it a charming backdrop for candles, plants, or seasonal displays. Fresh paint, recessed lighting, and new ceiling fans keep the space bright and inviting. The eat-in kitchen offers wraparound white cabinetry with generous L-shaped counter space, a classic tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances, including a gas range and a French door refrigerator. There is room for a dining table right where the action happens, making everyday meals and casual get-togethers easy. With a little vision, updated countertops, hardware, or lighting could take this functional kitchen to the next level and make it truly yours. Both bedrooms feature hardwood flooring and new ceiling fans, offering peaceful retreats at the end of a long day. The second bedroom adds flexibility as a guest room, home office, workout space, or hobby room, adapting easily as your needs change. A full bathroom conveniently serves the home and offers another great opportunity to add value with your own updates. Outside is where this home really shines. The large covered deck is ready for grilling, outdoor dining, and entertaining, with white railings and string lights that set the mood long after sunset. Its roof gives you shade on sunny afternoons and shelter on drizzly evenings, so you can enjoy the outdoors more often. The spacious backyard is shaded by mature trees and enclosed by a white vinyl privacy fence installed within the last few years, offering low-maintenance durability and a private setting for pets, play, gardening, or simply unwinding under the open sky. Need room for vehicles, tools, or weekend projects? The attached 2 car garage delivers valuable parking, storage, and workshop potential, keeping cars out of the weather and giving you space for bikes, lawn equipment, holiday décor, and DIY supplies. The extended driveway adds even more off-street parking. This home is an excellent opportunity for buyers who see the value in a little sweat equity. Key updates like fresh paint, new ceiling fans, stainless appliances, and a newer privacy fence are already done, so you can focus your time and budget on the projects that matter most to you. Refinish the floors, refresh the kitchen and bath, and watch your investment grow with every improvement. For investors, the manageable size, appealing features, and solid foundation make this an attractive option to hold as a rental or to renovate and resell. Bring your ideas and your vision, and discover the potential waiting for you in Crossroad Terrace!
