3518 Ridge Drive One-level ranch living on a winding street shaded by big oaks, maples and sycamores, where the power lines are buried and the only thing overhead is the canopy. Mornings here start with a run or a dog walk along level streets and end with an evening stroll back to a porch under the branches. Inside, three bedrooms and two baths spread across 1, 514 square feet on a single floor with no steps between them and a wide 36-inch hallway, so moving through the house feels easy from the first day to the fiftieth year. The primary suite is the retreat: a built-in vanity, double sinks and three closets, so every season has a home. The living room gathers around a gas log fireplace. The kitchen and dining room flow together under white shiplap and crisp white cabinetry, with a separate laundry and mudroom tucked between the garage and kitchen to catch the boots, bags and groceries before they reach the house. Gas heat and a tankless gas water heater for efficient, on-demand hot water, with electric everywhere else. Out back, a wood deck overlooks a fully fenced, level yard with a storage shed. Two-car attached garage. Move-in ready on a 0.31-acre lot in Joplin, MO, minutes from Thomas Jefferson Independent Day School and Missouri Southern State University.
