About This Home
This move-in-ready 4-bedroom, 1.5-bath colonial is ideally located within walking distance to Coventry Lake and downtown. The updated kitchen features an eat-in area and new luxury laminate flooring, flowing into a spacious living room and a formal dining room, plus a convenient half bath on the main level. Upstairs, four generously sized bedrooms share an updated full bath. The home also offers newer windows throughout and updated smoke detectors for added peace of mind, along with a well-maintained electrical panel already set up with a generator transfer switch, a great feature for backup power. The property is served by private well and septic, and the basement includes a wood-burning stove (as-is, not currently functional) that could offer additional ambiance or supplemental heat potential with repair. The full, unfinished basement provides excellent storage, while the level, private yard and enclosed porch make an ideal space for entertaining or simply relaxing outside. Rounding out the property is a 1-car garage and fresh paint throughout, giving the entire home a clean, turnkey feel. And if you could believe this one, there is an underground bunker.. nicely situated underneath the front porch. Schedule your private viewing today.
