Welcome home to this spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch in the Cardinal Wood subdivision! Step inside to a freshly painted interior and a versatile floor plan offering plenty of room to spread out. The sunken living room sits just off the entry, while the kitchen connects to both a separate dining room and a comfortable hearth/family room with sliding glass doors leading directly to the backyard and patio. A window above the kitchen sink keeps the backyard in view, adding a little everyday practicality to the heart of the home. Real hardwood flooring runs through the dining room, hallway and bedrooms, with ceramic tile in the bathrooms and easy-care luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout the kitchen and living spaces - no carpet anywhere! Outside, you'll find a covered front porch, all-brick exterior with an architectural-shingle roof, a fully fenced backyard and an exceptionally functional driveway setup. In addition to the 2-car garage and dedicated storage space, the driveway widens to provide a third parking space alongside the garage and continues around the home to connect directly with the rear patio - great for additional parking and backyard access. Even better, the entire HVAC system was replaced in July 2026! The refrigerator stays, too. With multiple living areas, hardwood floors, generous parking, a fenced yard and a brand-new HVAC system, this Cardinal Wood home offers a lot of space and flexibility in St. Charles.
