Welcome to 3501 Melissa Lane, a beautifully maintained and thoughtfully designed home located in the desirable South Ridge subdivision of Urbana. This ranch-style residence offers a spacious 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath layout with a split floor plan, providing separation and privacy between the primary suite and secondary bedrooms. With 1,762 finished square feet, this home has been crafted around comfort, function, and modern everyday living. Step inside to an open-concept main living area highlighted by a cathedral ceiling that enhances the sense of space and natural light. The living room features a welcoming gas log fireplace that anchors the room and provides a cozy focal point. The adjoining kitchen is well-appointed with granite countertops, soft-close cabinetry, a tiled backsplash, and a generous walk-in pantry. Nearly new black stainless steel appliances-including the refrigerator, oven/range, microwave, and dishwasher-are included, making the kitchen move-in ready from day one. A Samsung washer and dryer in the convenient mudroom/laundry room also remain with the home. The primary suite offers a relaxing retreat, complete with a walk-in tiled shower and a layout designed for comfort and ease. Wood laminate flooring runs throughout the main living spaces, adding warmth, durability, and easy maintenance. A functioning dormer above the front entry brings character to the exterior, while the covered front porch adds charm and usability. Outdoor living is just as attractive, with a back brick paver patio located off the sliding glass door-perfect for grilling, entertaining, or simply enjoying the west-facing backyard sunsets. The wide concrete driveway includes an adjustable basketball hoop and leads to a hard-to-find 3-car attached garage, offering excellent storage or workshop flexibility. Another valuable benefit of this home is its participation in the THINK Urbana tax abatement program, with time remaining to provide significant long-term financial savings to the future owner. Don't miss the opportunity to own a modern, comfortable, and well-maintained home in one of Urbana's most convenient and growing neighborhoods.
