About This Home

Charming one-story cottage-style home filled with character! This inviting property features 3 bedrooms and 1 bath. The layout includes a kitchen, dining room, family room, and convenient laundry area for everyday comfort. Situated on a corner lot, the property offers a fenced backyard perfect for pets, gardening, or relaxing outdoors, along with a detached garage for parking and additional storage. Enjoy a fantastic location close to local schools and just a short distance from a neighborhood park with a splash pad and walking trail. As an added bonus, the home sits along a local parade route, giving you a front-row seat to enjoy community celebrations right from your own yard. Recent updates include a new roof on the house and garage (Oct 2023), new flooring throughout most of the home, fresh interior paint, new air conditioning unit (Aug 2025), and a newly built front porch (May 2025). The kitchen currently features a vintage-style refrigerator, though space can accommodate a standard-size refrigerator if preferred.
