Welcome to 9513 Saratoga Drive in McCandless, an updated 3 bedroom, 2 bath ranch home in the North Allegheny School District. Perfect as a starter home or if you are downsizing later in life. The home is situated in a very walkable, low-traffic, family-friendly, vibrant neighborhood, one mile away from a movie theater, shops of McCandless Crossing, the newly renovated Northland Library and 10 minutes from CCAC North campus. Enjoy the neutral fresh decor, newer main bathroom, second full downstairs bathroom, plenty of closet space and updated kitchen with brand new refrigerator and built-in pantry. HVAC 2 years old, updated electric box 2 years ago. Relax in the upstairs family room addition with windows which overlook the deck and tree-lined back yard but especially enjoy the spectacular nightly sunsets on clear evenings. Enjoy a glass of wine from your wine fridge and dry bar. This room is also perfect for birthday parties, or watching the football game while the snowflakes fall outside as you are warmed by the lovely gas fireplace. Downstairs is another more cozy family room great for curling up and watching movies. An extra room downstairs is perfect as a home office or gym. This home has two separate single-car garages which is a rare find in this area. This home borders the Center Oak neighborhood. North Park is 5 minutes away, and you can be on the lake with your own or a rental kayak after only an 8 minute drive from home. Enjoy all of the many amenities of North Park including pickleball, tennis, swimming pool and an abundance of walking trails. Lastly, watch for Santa as he rides by during the holidays, and get the candy ready for those Halloweeners! This home is a real gem.
