About This Home
As of December 2022Beautifully picturesque cottage style home in the heart of Paxton, located just a few blocks from schools. The size of this property is a pleasant surprise as you step inside, with just over 2000 square feet of finished living space. The split bedroom plan provides 2 bedrooms and a full bathroom on the main level, and a full master suite on the second level with a newly remodeled full bathroom, laundry room and multiple closets. The living room and dining area offer a huge open living space with new flooring and modern paint updates, with the dining space adjacent to the kitchen with loads of cabinetry and storage. The bonus space towards the back of the house serves as an office area, drop zone, mud room, sunroom or whatever you want to make of it. The back of the house opens to a covered patio space, spacious back yard area, mature shade trees and built-in firepit. The attached 2-car garage offers extra size and space to allow for a work area or storage, and also a surprise second level attic with potential for additional storage space. All kitchen appliances are included and the water softener system is owned. The HVAC components were new as of less than 3 years ago.
