This beautiful three bedroom U-shaped brick ranch in the heart of Lakewood has been completely and tastefully redone in the past few years! It has lovely curb appeal with a circular driveway & paver patio/walkway and is beautifully landscaped. The gleaming hardwood floors throughout offer a decidedly pristine appearance. There are two fireplaces (living room and family room) and an updated kitchen with warm grey cabinets, quartz counters, new stainless steel appliances and a new backsplash. The master bedroom has remote control shades and an updated full bath! Ceiling fans are in most rooms. Additional storage available in the crawl spaces with concrete floors and drywall. The lovely wooded lot features a nice size backyard complete with a storage shed and a large brick paver patio with a centerpiece gas fire pit. This area is fabulous for entertaining family and friends and can be accessed from the family room or the primary bedroom through sliding glass doors. The large family room and living room are adorned with crown molding and there are newer windows. This home also features a Generac generator and water filtration system for your peace of mind. There is an optional membership available in the CCAPOA for Crystal Lake's private beaches with boat access. Enjoy the close location to the lake and the walking and biking trails that Lakewood has to offer. The Gates of Lakewood are a most covetous address although several homes may require complete renovation. This house has been lovingly and exquisitely updated and will be a refuge and haven from a chaotic world! (For a list of all the improvements, please check out the "Additional Information" provided.)
