About This Home
As of August 2019Just a picture perfect home that really has it all! Amazingly cute interior with welcoming and cozy decorating. You enter into the large living room that has an extra nook for a small desk or office space. There is also a charming stone fireplace that completes this room beautifully. You'll notice a very open floor plan with the living room leading right into the dining room and kitchen. Super cute and bright kitchen that leads to the rear deck overlooking your large lot. There is also an area off the kitchen that makes a nice pantry for extra storage. The main floor bedrooms are really cute and decorated to make you feel comfortable and right at home. You will also appreciate the bathroom which has a very beachy feel. Check out the million dollar view from your deck! Believe it or not you have 1/3 of an acre for your lot! There is a ton of off-street parking which is a huge benefit in this area. Large full basement with a few surprises. There is a second full bath and an area that was converted into a bedroom. It could also be converted to a family room as well and has a beautiful set of French doors. The attic is also very large and allows for a ton of storage. Newer gas heat and water heater (2015). The chimney liner was also replaced and the sliding door to the deck is also new. Central air included as well. This home offers quite a bit and is definitely worth checking out.
