A rare opportunity in Lake Island Estates for sprawling brick ranch on a beautiful 1.2+/- acre lot, ideal for new construction or renovation. Set slightly above the street and surrounded by mature landscaping, the lot offers an excellent setting for a custom build. Alternatively, reimagine the existing home and blend its period charm with modern architecture and design. Excellent floorplan features 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths on the main level, including the primary suite, hardwood floors throughout, formal living room, separate dining room, and an updated kitchen with white shaker cabinetry and farmhouse sink open to family room and deck overlooking large private yard. Finished terrace level includes large recreation or media room, an additional bedroom with full bath, an office or additional flex space with daylight across the entire back of the property. Permanent stairs to the attic combined with a large attic footprint offer additional opportunities for renovation and expansion. Superb location, minutes from shopping, dining, and top-rated schools.
