Tucked on a quiet residential street in the sought-after Merrick school district, this bright and beautifully updated 5-bedroom hi-ranch with 3 full baths is ready for its next chapter. Zoned for Birch Elementary, Merrick Avenue Middle, and JFK High, it offers plenty of room to live, work, and play. Not in a flood zone. Inside, gleaming hardwood floors run throughout an open, light-filled main level with recessed lighting, chair-rail molding, and a bay window. The updated eat-in kitchen is a standout — rich cherry cabinetry, granite counters, a mosaic-tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a skylight that floods the space with natural light. The dining area opens through sliding doors onto a spacious lattice-covered deck with ceiling fans — the perfect spot for warm-weather gatherings — while downstairs the family room's sliders lead out to a paver patio and the backyard. The primary bedroom features its own private full bath, and the home's tiled bathrooms are tastefully updated. Out back, the deck overlooks a paver patio and a large, private, fully fenced yard — your own private retreat for entertaining and relaxing. Central air keeps things comfortable year-round and the house has gas for both heating and cooking. Just minutes from parkways, parks, Trader Joe's, and local restaurants, this house offers everyday convenience in a location that's hard to beat.
