About This Home

As of June 2026

Move-in ready and full of updates, this charming 2-bedroom home offers comfort and functionality. Inside, you’ll find beautiful hardwood floors and a thoughtfully updated kitchen and bathroom, creating a clean and inviting living space. Major improvements have already been taken care of, including a complete tear-off roof just 6 years ago, some updated windows, and a waterproofed basement with a transferable warranty for added peace of mind.
The basement features higher ceilings, making it an ideal candidate for future finishing—perfect for adding extra living space, a rec room, or home office. Mechanical updates include a furnace, A/C, and water heater that are approximately 10 years old.
Outside, enjoy a fully fenced backyard with a freshly stained, partially covered deck—great for relaxing or entertaining—along with a spacious storage shed for all your outdoor needs. A newly updated carport adds convenience and protection from the elements.
This home is ready for its next owner to move right in and make it their own!
