About This Home

As of August 2022

This surprising bi-level has been carefully maintained, and is clean and spacious! The main level features hardwood flooring in the living room, which is open to the kitchen. Then--the addition of a large sunroom with a vaulted ceiling will make this your favorite spot to relax! Two of the original main floor bedrooms have been combined to make one large bedroom with two closets. The backyard is fenced, and the perimeter is lined with arborvitae for maximum privacy. This home has all of the important mechanical updates within the last 3 years: roof with FIFTY-year shingles (transferrable warranty); furnace; central air; 50-gallon water heater; battery back-up for sump pump. It also comes with an attached garage (electric heater) and 200-amp electrical service. Close to shopping, restaurants, and expressways for the commuter.
