About This Home

As of November 2014

Wow! Move right in without a fuss!! Recently remodeled two story home with possible in-law apartment down (currently has a bath with a former kitchen and bedroom down as well). Fun and imaginative "cabin" theme on the first floor with a vaulted knotty-pine ceiling overlooking the kitchen and dinette. Formal living room and dining room. New central air (2014). Newer paint, carpet, and vinyl throughout most of the home. This home does have a former two car detached garage off the back alley which is still up and available for use as a garage (needs the back wall redone with an overhead door opening). Kitchen appliances stay. Fenced yard for children or pets. Worth your time seeing at this price!
