A Home That Works as Hard as You Do -- Imagine Saturday afternoons with the sun warming your skin, the smell of the grill drifting around the deck, and the cooler of refreshing drinks sweating just a bit in the slightly humid summer air. Listen to the laughter in the yard below. Yeah, that's the experience of your new dream! Some homes check the boxes. This one fills them in - with hardwood floors underfoot, a backyard built for gathering, and the kind of thoughtful upgrades that make everyday life genuinely better. Classic 1950s construction with hardwood floors throughout, smart updates, and a backyard that earns its own mention - all on a quiet, walkable street in Sidney, NY, just steps from school, a baseball field, and a neighborhood playground. The original three-bedroom layout was thoughtfully reimagined: the third bedroom was converted into an extension of the main living room, creating an open flow from the living space through the dining area and out through a slider to a 16x20 wood deck. The kitchen has been updated with modern appliances and connects seamlessly to that outdoor entertaining space. Two spacious bedrooms each offer closets, two windows, ceiling fans, and hardwood floors. Central full bath. Full basement is dry and clean with washer/dryer and open space for a gym, office, or hobby room. Outside, the deck overlooks a gently sloping yard that levels into a generous flat lower lawn with a stone fire pit, an 8X10 garden shed with new metal roof, and a tall wood picket fence enclosing the entire yard - ideal for pets, kids, or simply privacy. The one-car garage has been converted into a fully insulated, heated media room with padded flooring and automatic door opener. Covered breezeway connects garage to home. Paved driveway fits 3-4 cars. Covered front entry. A well-loved home in a neighborhood that still feels like one.
