137 8th Ave., Hickory, NC 28601

Just 100 yds from the Hickory YMCA, this charming 3BR/ 2 1/2 BA brick ranch is completely updated. There's a stylish kitchen with tile floor, glazed maple cabinets, granite counters, recessed and under cabinet lighting and newer appliances. The large window in the living room brings the outdoors right inside. Architectural columns define the LR/DR spaces without closing them off. There are lots of hardwood floors on the main level. Two updated baths and a centrally located home office on the main level. There are two fireplaces with gas logs...one in the living room; a more rustic in the fully finished walkout basement. There's lots of fresh paint, a single garage plus plenty of room for a workshop or a collector car. There's a roomy front porch with a view of the prettiest maple in town. Just off the kitchen, there's a composite deck that is perfect for grilling. This lovely home is located near LRU, SALT, shopping and great restaurants.
