Enjoy your morning coffee or evening unwind in the enclosed four season front porch. The spacious kitchen, family room, formal dining room, and back mudroom make everyday living both functional and comfortable. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms, a full bath, and access to an unfinished attic. already plumbed and ready to become your dream suite or creative space. Walk downstairs to a bright, clean basement complete with a half bath, radon mitigation system and a sump pump; all of which make this home as practical as it is beautiful. The entire exterior of the house was freshly painted in Summer 2025. The home sits on a corner lot with a fully-fenced backyard and a large two-car garage. A rare mix of character, comfort, and potential to add square footage (attic space) in a desirable and convenient location. All information obtained from seller and public records.
