About this home
Tucked at the end of a dead-end street in the heart of Kettering, this all-brick ranch offers the kind of quiet most buyers only dream about. With virtually no traffic, freshly sealed blacktop, clean landscaping, and mature trees on every side, the lot feels private and peaceful, yet you're minutes from everything. Step inside to find refinished wood flooring flowing through the great room, hallways, and into the bedrooms, plus fresh paint throughout for a crisp, move-in-ready feel. Off the great room, a raised deck overlooks the lush, tree-lined back yard. The kitchen was beautifully remodeled in April 2024 and opened into the dining room. It features IKEA ASKERSUND cabinetry, quartz countertops, LifeProof LVP flooring, and all-new 2024 Samsung smart refrigerator, induction range, dishwasher, and microwave. Under-cabinet lighting, overhead LED channels, and automated sink blinds add modern convenience. The main level also offers three bedrooms with custom closets, plus two full baths, including a primary bath. The finished walkout basement adds tons of extra living space: a fourth bedroom, another full bath, laundry room, and plenty of storage. Walk out to the private patio, plus enjoy the peace and quiet this location is famous for. There's a two-car side-entry garage, plus a smart home system that's easy to live with: Home Assistant controller, UniFi Wi-Fi/network, and energy-use sensing on selected kitchen, laundry, and other appliances. The best part? Wall switches work exactly like a normal house. Smart controls just add optional app, voice, and automation features — high-tech without the headache. From end-of-street privacy to the remodeled kitchen to the walkout lower level, this one checks every box. If you've been waiting for a quiet, move-in-ready retreat in Kettering, this is it. Come see why 265 Highland Terrace won't last. An America's Preferred Home Warranty is included!
