About this home

Practical updates and room to spread out — that's what 19946 Detroit Avenue brings. The well is two years old and the furnace is five, so two of the larger expenses are already handled before you move in. Inside this three-bedroom, one-bath bungalow, 1,092 square feet is arranged for everyday living. The large eat-in kitchen has space for a full table, making it the natural gathering spot for meals and conversation. A separate formal dining area takes over when you're hosting, so the kitchen stays uncrowded. Three bedrooms keep your options open — a primary, a guest room, and a home office or hobby space. Out back, the porch offers genuine privacy, the kind that makes morning coffee and quiet evenings easy. The corner lot adds breathing room and room to garden, play, or simply spread out, and the quiet street keeps things calm while staying close to shopping, dining, and main roads. For a first home or a downsize, this one covers the practical bases: newer mechanicals, flexible living space, and a layout that works. Schedule your showing today.
