As of April 2018

Charm and comfort are the hallmarks of this home, and its many upgrades complement the home's character and original architecture beautifully. As soon as you enter the living room from the porch, you'll notice the spacious and unobstructed floor plan into the formal dining room. The newer galley kitchen provides 42" cherry cabinets, stainless steel appliances, a large pantry, granite counter tops, slate flooring, and access to the rear deck. The basement includes lots of storage space, laundry, and a walkout to the front. This home boasts a stone foundation, solid brick and stucco construction, pitched slate roof, newer energy efficient windows, hardwoods, newer central air and gas furnace, updated electric, a water drainage system, and an attractive backyard. Three amply-sized bedrooms and an updated bathroom don the second floor. A close-knit community, Union Park Gardens is a great place to take a walk and meet your neighbors!
