About This Home

Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac, this home offers both convenience and potential. Located close to shopping, dining, Fellows Elementary, and the high school, it's an easy spot to settle into everyday life. Major updates were completed in 2018, including the roof, HVAC, breaker box, and water heater, giving peace of mind for the big-ticket items. Inside, you'll find hardwood flooring waiting to be uncovered beneath the carpet in the living room and under the laminate in the dining area. The kitchen cabinets are in great condition, and the backyard is fully fenced, perfect for pets or play. The home has a solid foundation and plenty of opportunity to make it your own.
