About This Home

As of December 2018

Welcome to 128 Gerald Ave. Don't assume this is an ordinary and typical 2-Story home. This home has a huge addition in the rear on the main level with high vaulted ceilings and skylight windows offering the room plenty of beautiful, natural light. Three additional rooms in the lower level make living here comfortable and special. You will love the HEATED sunroom that walks out to the back patio and yard. The heated tub hidden under the back deck is perfect for year-round relaxation. Great pride in ownership is evident by the seller repainting and providing general touch ups to give the new owners a perfect place to call home. A patio, a deck, a hot tub, a large family room, a game room, an office and extra room below with a wood burning fireplace, plus a remodeled kitchen with lots of tile floors will make for an easy and good life for the new owners.
