About This Home
LOCATION & PRIVACY!

The finished lower level adds valuable flex space — ideal as a media room, play area, or home office. Step outside to side and rear patios that extend your living space outdoors — ideal for relaxing and entertaining while overlooking the private, wooded yard. BRAND-NEW ROOF - Buyer to select shingle color and seller will install. Two off-street parking spaces complete the package.
