The laundry and mud room includes a side door entrance just off of the parking area, making it a practical spot for storing shoes, coats, and gear. The entrance to the third bedroom is located in this space, which can also serve as a home office or flexible living area.
This home and its lovely grounds offer a multitude of benefits and have been lovingly maintained for many years. The property could be a gardener's paradise and the current owner has already filled the yard with native plants and trees, ensuring that something is always in bloom. Enjoy privacy and serenity while being part of a welcoming community, conveniently close to a park with a playground, shopping, restaurants, and the neighborhood elementary school.
