About This Home

As of January 2025

Well maintained Hessian Camp ranch with 2 spacious bedrooms and 1.5 baths located on a .16 acre corner lot. As you walk up the stairs to the front door, you'll notice all the lovely landscaping with not a lot of grass to mow. You'll enter the front door onto a wide flagstone entry hall with a double coat closet and skylight and immediately notice the open floor plan. The 33-handle European-style kitchen boasts Corian counter tops and tile floor/back splash, as well as a Bosch dishwasher, built-in microwave and a side-by-side refrigerator. All the appliances are included. The dining room features a mirrored wall and glass sliding doors leading to a large tiled sun room for your entire family to enjoy. A brick fireplace is the focal point of the spacious living room, as well as a mirrored wall and bow window. The main bedroom has a walk-in closet, as well as an additional double closet and fan. There is a lovely partially finished basement with a huge family room featuring a second brick fireplace, a wet bar with back bar for storage and a powder room. The laundry/storage room is located on the lower level and a set of upgraded appliances is ready for your use. In addition, there is a spacious workshop/storage/utility room if you like to tinker.....or, it can be turned back into a garage.
