The kitchen has been updated with engineered oak flooring, newer cabinets with original built in cabinets, granite counter, newer appliances, and a breakfast room. The back bedroom showcases newly installed wood-style linoleum and double paned window. A dedicated laundry room provides convenience. The property also boasts a nice small yard with a prolific lemon tree, adding to the property's character and appeal.
