37 Bent, Bloomington • $380,300

Elegant one level living! A great new home in Royal Links built by Johnston Builders. We know what a ranch style usually looks like. But this is a masterpiece! It is maintenance free living at its best. Custom kitchen cabinets and granite countertops anchor a high style kitchen that opens to the great room. The four season room is a gentle escape set off from the rest of the home. Hardwood and tile flooring are found throughout the home. Soft colors and bullnose corners leave you feeling relaxed and at ease. The master suite has a remarkable bath with separate vanities, and two large closets. Designed with your comfort in mind!

Many signs point to an improved real estate market. Some are more obvious than others. In markets like ours, real estate is making strides toward recovery. Buyers are taking advantage of low interest rates and investing in their future through homeownership. It all adds up to the four bold letters every buyer (and seller) wants to see: S-O-L-D. If you’re in the position to buy a home, now may be the time. When you’re ready, make sure you contact a real estate agent who’s a REALTOR®.
