About This Home

As of February 2025

Cozy up in this well cared for home with many newer updates. The classic charm and character have been maintained with beautiful hardwood floors and trim. Large formal dining area off the kitchen and living room. The sunroom nook would make a great office space or spot to enjoying that favorite book. This is a 2 bedroom and one and a half bathroom home. The master bedroom has a walk-in closet and nook area for dressers or computer space. The spacious backyard would be great for entertaining with a brick fireplace and an attached single garage help make this house a home!
