About This Home
As of August 2013This 1400sf ranch has very pleasant features, particularly useful for those with handicaps: an open floor plan, a roll-in shower, a large bedroom with sliders to a deck and a covered ramp from the deck to the 24' x 30' garage. Other pluses include: steel siding, an oak kitchen (all appliances included), a main floor family room, a wood-burning fireplace, waterproofed basement (transferrable warranty) and a fairly new roof (2006), furnace and air conditioner (2003).
