About This Home

As of May 2026

Fabulous combination of delightfully updated bungalow in great condition, large shop and a large lot! This home was *completely* remodeled about 10 years ago--new wiring, plumbing, windows, flooring, fixtures--all of it! Super functional kitchen with granite counters, cute backsplash, stainless appliances and eating bar. Laminate floors--no carpet! Large utility room with appliances included. Shop is 960 SF with a concrete floor. Lot is fully fenced and gated--a little over 1/3 acre. Roof and gutters are brand new and the on demand water heater is just a year old! Home is bright and sunny, property is begging for a garden for all that sunshine!
