About This Home

As of May 2023

NEW AND IMPROVED PRICING! Convenient , large corner lot comes with a heartwarming home. And, a roof that s only 5 years old! Imagine having all that AND the luxuries of gorgeous granite countertops, breathtaking Brazilian Cherry hardwood, timeless tile flooring and a lovely location that can t be beat! You will feel like you are at home when you enter the front door into the Family Room where everyone relaxes and gets together. Isn t that what a home is all about? The previous owners transformed the dining room into an office with cabinets fit for a king. Remove them or create your own private office since everyone is working from home these days. Hold on to your hat, because there are many more details. . . Crown molding, recessed lighting and built in shelving adorn the meticulous, modern living room with stunning custom stone fireplace. Just off the fabulous kitchen, step outside into your own fenced oasis where you can barbeque, relax by the firepit, exercise or entertain on the two-tier covered deck with electricity. Are you a person that loves to sit outside when it rains? Throw on your sweater and read a good book because you ll be covered. Upstairs is the large master suite, getting a facelift with a new vanity, tile floor and toilet. Down the hall are the spacious three other bedrooms and laundry. Have you ever wished for a 2nd floor laundry? Yes, I said it, a SECOND FLOOR laundry. I m getting tired, let s head down to the finished basement and get a drink at the beloved BE HAPPY bar that comes with a kegerator. O my! Then you can schedule your showing to see it to believe it asap before you miss out on this gem! MOTIVATED SELLER! We are delighted to pass on this $10,000 savings to you.
