About This Home

As of January 2017

Welcome home to this 3 bedroom, 1 ½ bath Dutch Colonial in Alger Heights. Spend those long summer days and nights on the fantastic front porch or head inside through the 2 sets of French doors that open up the interior to the outside. The first set of doors opens into the spacious living room featuring a fireplace, built in book shelves and original wood floors. The other set of French doors leads to the semi-formal dining room for beautiful family diners or a night with friends. The large kitchen offers ample cupboard and counter space. Upstairs 3 good sized bedrooms and a full bath are a perfect fit. Plenty of storage space in the basement. The furnace is just 2 years old. Out back you will find a nice fenced in area as well as a newer 2 stall garage. Call today!
