About This Home
As of March 2022: From the large circular driveway (paved in 2018) to the moment you step into the mid century classic home you will feel the elegance of this home. The large formal living room has beautiful hardwood floors with plenty of room for a formal dining area. You will love the natural light that floods the room. The den also has large windows that capture the light from the rear of the house. The den has a fireplace with a brick surround and a door that will lead you to the rear yard. Following the brick theme into the kitchen, there is an arched brick wall with the range. The kitchen also has an eat in area. The laundry room has enough space and cupboards to also be used as your walk in pantry. There is half bath off of the laundry area. There are three bedrooms, two have attached baths. The main bath has been updated with dual sinks and a tub/shower combo with a tiled surround as well as heated floors. The basement has a partially finished family room, a bonus room and an additional bathroom. The high efficiency furnace with heat pump and central air were new in 2018. Did I mention the new roof in 2019?
