About This Home
As of May 2026Welcome from the inviting front porch into a bright, cheerful living room. French doors open to a cozy den, while an arched entry leads to the dining room with a lovely bay window. The home continues to nicely sized bedrooms with built-ins, two full baths, and a sun-drenched laundry room. From there, head downstairs to a sprawling finished and heated basement offering incredible bonus space for hobbies, a media room, gym, workshop, or abundant storage. Recent updates include new interior and exterior paint, appliances, ceiling fans, and improvements to the electrical and plumbing.
Outside, enjoy a private yard with new fencing, RV parking, and room for a garden or future shop. Detached single-car garage. Ideally located near the hospital, schools, downtown, and the charm of the desirable West Avenues.
