About This Home

As of January 2025

In a convenient downtown location, this 3BR (could be 4), 1.5-bath home underwent a complete remodel in 2015, and some more recent updates, including new kitchen appliances, new roof on house and garage, new siding on garage, new flooring in the enclosed porch and fresh paint! From the rear entrance, you'll enter a small mud room and the half bath with W/D hookups. The large, bright kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining room, which boasts original built-ins and a huge picture window for lots of natural light. French doors bring you into the office, or convert it to a small 1st-floor BR. The living room is big enough for lots of comfy furnishings. Completing the 1st floor is an oversized enclosed porch with new laminate flooring. Head upstairs to the full bath and 3 big bedrooms with closets that offer so much space! The exterior offers a manageable yard and a one-car garage (or workshop) with electricity. Pack up your things and move right in!
