Welcome to 12 Lafko Drive-a home that's been given a second life and is ready for its next chapter. This charming single-story residence sits on nearly half an acre of peaceful Poughkeepsie real estate, and here's the best part: six to seven years ago, it underwent a complete transformation. We're talking roof, electrical, plumbing, windows, and structural systems-all rebuilt fresh and up to code. That means you're not buying a home with hidden surprises lurking in the walls; you're buying one where the hard stuff is already done. Picture this: three bedrooms, one bathroom, 1,210 square feet of comfortable living space, and mature trees framing your private retreat. The open, single-story layout makes it easy to move through the home, and there's even workshop potential for the projects, hobbies, or storage dreams you've been sitting on. This half-acre gives you room to breathe-something increasingly rare in today's market. And then there's location. You're walking distance to Eastdale Village, where shopping, dining, and services are right there when you need them. The home sits in the Arlington school district, adding real value to your investment. It's that sweet spot: peaceful and private, yet connected to everything that matters. This isn't just a home-it's a genuinely solid opportunity. The recent, extensive work means you can move in knowing the foundation is strong and systems are reliable. No surprises, no deferred maintenance, just a well-maintained home ready to welcome you.
