About this home
Timeless ranch living in the heart of Lake Katherine. Set beneath a canopy of mature trees, 826 Rickenbaker Road blends the enduring appeal of a classic brick ranch with thoughtfully refreshed interiors and an effortless single-level layout. A new front door welcomes you inside, where original hardwood floors, beautiful millwork, and natural light establish a warm, refined feel. The expansive great room is the heart of the home. A soaring beamed ceiling, statement chandelier, custom built-ins, and wet bar create an inviting backdrop for entertaining. French doors open to newly installed decking, extending the living space outdoors, while the adjoining dining room, anchored by a fireplace, offers an intimate setting for dinner with friends. White cabinetry, granite countertops, a subway tile backsplash, and new tile flooring give the kitchen a fresh, polished finish. Three bedrooms and two full baths keep everyday living comfortably on one level, including a primary bedroom with an updated en suite bath and generous tiled shower. Outside, the deck overlooks a spacious backyard with mature trees and room for dining, gardening, and quiet afternoons. Convenient to Cross Hill Market, neighborhood shopping and dining, and downtown Columbia, this inviting Lake Katherine ranch brings together classic charm, thoughtful updates, and the ease of one-story living.
