About This Home

As of May 2025

This charming bungalow makes you feel right at home with an inviting floor plan and loads of updates. The front porch is charming and leads into a large living room where you have plenty of space to relax. This property was remodeled to open up the kitchen with room for a breakfast bar and loads of counterspace and cabinets. Both bedrooms are spacious with good closet space. Stained glass accents are featured in a number of the windows adding to the character. A mudroom sits between the kitchen and fenced yard and includes the laundry and plenty of space for shoes and coats. The backyard features a deck addition and is fenced. A large 1.5 car garage sits in the backyard for storage or even a workshop. Take a look quick, you are going to love it! (Furnace was replaced and Central added in 2022)
