About This Home

As of June 2025

Tons of value & potential with this one! With a total of 4 bedrooms & 2 bathrooms, this home can be used as a single family residence with a separate mother-in-law suite, or a duplex with 3 bedrooms & 1 bath above ground & a 1 bed, 1 bath rental in the basement, or easily open it all up for 4 bedrooms & 2 bathrooms with a separate exterior entrance! The roof on the home & the TWO garages were replaced in 2016, the furnace & air conditioner new in 2022, a new driveway in 2015 & a new front deck in 2024! With all those done you can focus on the cosmetics & there are even beautiful hardwood floors under the carpets! Walking onto the new deck to the front door, you enter into the living room and can go one way to the kitchen or the other though the dining area. The mudroom & laundry room is conveniently located off the back of the home near the TWO, 2 car garages. Upstairs you'll find 3 nicely sized bedrooms and a bathroom with a newer shower. In the basement there is lots of storage & a newer HVAC system. The sub-basement needs some updating but can be an excellent investment opportunity or a separate space for multi-generational living. The backyard is private & has TWO, 2-car garages, one of which is heated. Schedule your showing today!
