170 Dawes Avenue offers the kind of space, condition, and flexibility that can be difficult to find at this price point. This well-maintained brick ranch features 1,424 square feet of comfortable single-level living with hardwood floors, fresh paint throughout, updated windows, and a layout that feels both open and practical. A generously sized living room with fireplace flows into the dining area and open-concept kitchen, with two bedrooms and a full bath completing the main level. The full basement adds approximately 1,420 square feet and offers substantial potential for future finished living space. Much of the work is already underway, with primed sheetrock in place and the remaining space primarily awaiting flooring, ceiling finishes, and the next owner's vision. Plumbing access allows for the addition of another bathroom, while the finished laundry room is already complete. The basement has also been water sealed, and a radon mitigation system is installed. Outside, the classic brick exterior, attached two-car garage, level lot, and established residential setting make for an easy property to maintain and enjoy. Well cared for, thoughtfully improved, and genuinely move-in ready, 170 Dawes Avenue offers a comfortable home today with plenty of room to make it more tomorrow.
