About This Home

As of June 2023

Do not miss your opportunity to own this adorable 4 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom single that has been recently refreshed, offers one-floor living, and is move-in ready! Enter through the front door off of the covered front porch into the vast living room featuring Frieze carpeting, tile entryway, ceiling fan, and fresh neutral paint that flows beautifully throughout the entire home. The dining room offers laminate flooring, ceiling fan, and a large bay window. To your left, you’ll discover two main-floor bedrooms, both with ceiling fans and new 6 panel doors. The full bathroom with tub/shower and a spacious hallway closet complete this section of the home. Make your way to the generous, 27 cabinet, eat-in kitchen equipped with Corian countertops, laminate flooring, electric cooking, nickel fixtures, pantry, and double sink. A mudroom just off the kitchen provides access to the covered rear porch and fenced-in backyard with storage shed. Continue to the second floor which offers two additional massive bedrooms, one with built-in shelving and the other with two generous closets. Another hallway closet provides additional storage space for your seasonal items! The partially finished basement offers a spacious family room and a convenient half bath! The unfinished section provides a tool bench with storage cabinetry and houses the washer and dryer. Gas heat and hot water make this home very efficient. Call today for more information or to schedule your private showing as this home simply will not last!
