The open floor plan includes a large living room/dining room combination that opens into a bright kItchen with new cabinets and countertops, stainless steel range, microwave, dishwasher, and refrigerator. All bedrooms have wall-to-wall carpeting, closets, and ceiling fans. The bathroom has ceramic tile around the bathtub. The walk-in basement includes a large family room and a bonus room, both with wall-to-wall carpeting. There is also a laundry room and a second full bathroom with ceramic tile floor. Completing the lower level is a large workshop. Outside, enjoy the front porch or relax on the large covered composite deck in the back. This home sits on a gently sloping lot with mature trees.
