About This Home

As of April 2017

Custom built in 1954 as builder's own home this rambler is timeless. It offers a floor plan that is increasingly desirable as we discover the comfort and ease of one floor living, and the energy savings of smaller homes. Hardwood floors, fireplace, dining room and kitchen are the heart of this home. The garage was converted into a rec-room before current seller's ownership; it's the perfect TV room or rainy day playroom. The backyard is a private oasis that will delight in all seasons.
