Room to Roam in this Ranch

The ranch-style home found its heyday in the years between the 1940s and 1970s.

Back then developers and builders weren’t trying to squeeze as many homes on a property as possible to maximize earnings.

Also called ramblers, the homes are single-story, have simple roof lines, and allow for plenty of space inside and out.

Wouldn’t it be nice to have homes like that again?

These days you’re lucky if you have 10 feet between your neighbor, and you’re hoping-and-praying that your side windows don’t look directly into your neighbor’s home.

Is the ranch-style home a thing of the past?

Let’s hope not, but it certainly is refreshing when older ranch homes are modernized to allow the perfect mix of yesterday and today.

Large, open spaces and bedrooms are abundant in this home.  Featuring four bedrooms and three full bathrooms, 3901 Harlanwood Drive also has an exercise room (or home office, nursery, or whatever you need) two spacious walk-in master closets, a designer kitchen, two living rooms, and much more.

No excuse not to workout now!
