About this home

***LIMITED TIME*** Up to $10,000 in Concessions!! A ranch with a plot twist and the unmistakable craftsmanship of Darryl D. Evans, Inc. Behind the charming warm exterior and handsome side-load garage, this home delivers far more than first impressions reveal. The main level offers the ease of ranch-style living with a thoughtfully designed split-bedroom floor plan, creating privacy without sacrificing connection. Throughout the home, custom millwork, coffered ceiling and beautifully built wood closet systems bring character and quality to every corner. The open living spaces are made for gathering, while the builder's signature finishing touches make even the everyday spaces feel special. Upstairs is the unexpected bonus: a private and versatile area ideal for extended family, overnight guests, or a home office. An enormous attic adds exceptional storage and even more potential, with the remaining sheetrock conveying to give the next owner a head start on future plans. With summer winding down and a fresh season ahead, this home blends classic comfort, thoughtful flexibility, and the handcrafted details that make a Darryl Evans home anything but ordinary.
