What's around 701 Hamilton Dr

About this property

A new job has taken these homeowners out of state, and leaving what they thought to be their "forever atomic era home". Classic 3BR/2BA/2.5CAR sturdy brick ranch with some modern interior appointments and high quality upgrades, paired with the fantastic location makes this a smart purchase. One block from Hessel Park and the tennis courts, walking trails (and more!). Easy access to downtown restaurants and the Stadium. If walking is part of your healthy lifestyle, this is an optimal in town location. The home has been surveyed for solar panels and there is ample south facing surfaces to accommodate solar. With the new roof in place it is a great platform to add energy efficient solar augmentation which was next on the list for the current owners. Oversized corner lot (1 full lot plus 2/3 of another) offers a large fenced backyard for pets, gardening and even room for a pool! The detached two car garage brick faced over somewhat decoratively placed block walls and is equipped with its own gas furnace and thermostat. It is long enough for two cars, and some storage or workbench space at the back below end. The garage also has 6 windows for natural light if you were to turn it into a workshop. Nice tile upgrades and new waterproof flooring throughout the home. 100% reconstruction and facelift of the kitchen with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, handmade Spanish subway tile backsplash, farmhouse sink and upgraded appliances throughout. The basement was also refurbished with an industrial spin which can be augmented later in a number of ways. The walls are painted white to help brighten it up, and the ceiling is painted a dark blue to add the industrial overtone. New floor matching the upstairs was placed in the entire basement which is well designed in three primary spaces. The basement is already plumbed for a third bathroom and the previous electrical for laundry can be used in the development of a kitchenette for an inspired new owner. It is even possible to add a legal 4th bedroom by placing an egress window or door for emergency access. This was also part of the long-term plan, but a change in plans leaves this to the new owners. Across the ceiling of the basement, you'll note the entire house is hoisted upon steel I-Beam ensuring the first floor will never sag or feel shaky as you find in some older homes. The home contains two functioning fireplaces, one upstairs and one downstairs. Upstairs the brick is painted to match the allure of the living room. Downstairs the brick is an artful combination stonework with a sturdy poured mantle. Upgraded and professionally installed hot water on demand. **Radon is high and we have estimates for mitigation. 2018 New Roof 2019 Upgraded 200 Amp electrical panel system with power run below ground to the house, with space available to install a backup generator. 2019 Waterproof industrial 20ml think wood grain engineered light grain, wide (5") plank throughout 1st floor and basement 2019 Kitchen upgrades 2019 Lighting upgrades 2019 Dining room opened up with starburst lighting added 2019-20 Main Bath upgrade 2020 Fresh paint throughout 2020 HVAC duct work professionally cleaned and disinfected with new registers 2020 High Efficiency Furnace & heat pump Central Air with smart meter controls. 2020 Professionally installed hot water on demand Features: All spaces have new higher baseboard adding to the space appeal. New LED lighting throughout the first floor including all closets. New lighting in the Kitchen, Dinning, and Living room were selected to reflect the atomic era in which the original house was built, while elevating the function to modern standards. The refresh included all closets, paint and baseboard. The owners opted to leave the beautiful custom raised oak floor in all closets and had them refinished during the renovation. Two walls were opened and retrimmed making this home a combination of traditional ranch wit
