About This Home
As of August 2022Don't miss out on this charming home located on a spacious quarter acre lot, ready to move into with immediate possession. The owners have recently replaced all the big items, new roof, siding, furnace, water heater and more. The front three season porch features a large bank of windows with plenty of room for a shoe bench, coat hooks and a cozy chair. Walk inside and you will find hardwood floors, plaster coved ceilings and an arched doorway that separates the living room and dining room, there is also a very nice sized home office with two large windows. The spacious kitchen features tile flooring, a built-in desk, tons of cabinet space and all of the appliances stay. The full bath has a large, tiled vanity and shower and is located right next to the staircase that leads you upstairs where you will find three well sized bedrooms that each has plenty of closet space and canned overhead lighting. The unfinished basement is neat and clean, offers lots of additional dry storage and your laundry area. The door off the kitchen leads you to the breezeway and the attached garage but there is also a large unfinished room that offers endless possibilities for expansion; finish off a portion of this space to enlarge the bathroom, use it as a hobby room, workout room, garden room or just extra storage. The backyard has a fenced in dog run and the rest of the yard has a wood privacy fence along the perimeter and is open to the front by the garage but could easily be finished off for a very large completely fenced in backyard. The attached extra-long 1.5 stall garage was built in 2016 and offers plenty of room for all of your yard equipment, boat, car, toys and more. The lot is very good sized and additional parking is easily accommodated to the right of the driveway when hosting friends and family. Come see it today! Seller has requested highest and best offers by 4:00 pm on 7/2/22.
