About This Home

As of September 2025

Welcome to the perfect blend of city convenience and spacious, comfortable living. This well-maintained home sits on just under half an acre, offering plenty of room to enjoy both inside and out. Featuring 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, this home showcases original custom woodwork and classic metal kitchen cabinets that bring timeless charm and character to the space. The thoughtful layout includes a laundry room conveniently located on the bedroom level, creating a functional and comfortable flow throughout the home. One of the standout features of this property is the private backyard, which provides a peaceful retreat despite its location along the highway. With mature trees and plenty of space to entertain, relax, or garden, the backyard offers a rare sense of privacy that is hard to find with this kind of accessibility. The home also includes an attached carport and a spacious 40x24 detached garage/shop—ideal for hobbies, storage, or a workshop. For those seeking additional space, the large walk-in attic offers excellent potential to be finished into a fourth bedroom, office, or bonus living area. This is a must see that you wont want to miss!
