About This Home

3720 SE Howard Dr

Discover an incredible opportunity with discounted price to make this sprawling ranch your dream home! Situated on a beautiful, shaded .77-acre lot in the desirable Shawnee Heights area, this property offers generous living space, valuable updates, and exciting possibilities to build equity and customize to your taste. Inside, you'll find spacious living and family rooms, a generously sized primary bedroom, and three wood-burning fireplaces that add warmth, character, and timeless appeal. While some cosmetic updating will bring this home to its full potential, the seller has already invested in important improvements, including updated windows, electrical upgrades, additional insulation, and backyard fencing. You also get your choice between heating with a high efficiency furnace or electric baseboard heating because this home has both! The full basement offers tremendous potential for additional living space, a recreation room, home office, workout room, or more. An existing egress window provides an excellent opportunity to add a fourth bedroom, subject to applicable requirements. Outside, the expansive lot offers room to spread out, entertain, garden, or explore the possibilities for an additional outbuilding. A partially fenced backyard is ideal for kids, pets, or outdoor enjoyment. There's even a wide tucked-away gravel drive (grown over with grass) accessible from Alexander Drive, adding versatility and potential for additional parking or access. Location is another standout feature! Enjoy being just down the street from Shawnee Lake, where boating, swimming, fishing, and seasonal recreation await. Convenient highway access makes commuting and getting around town a breeze, all while enjoying the appeal of an established neighborhood and the highly regarded Shawnee Heights school district. Bring your vision and unlock the potential! With its generous footprint, substantial lot, major improvements already completed, and opportunities to personalize and add finished living space, this property is an exciting opportunity for homeowners, investors, or anyone looking to create something special.
