About This Home

As of April 2015

Don't wait to see this beautiful home! It has been extremely well cared for. Outside there is double pane windows & New siding. A Custom front walk & porch as well as a stamped, colored concrete patio in back. Enter your home through a glistening beveled glass front door w/ sidelights. The 1st floor is all hardwood & tile. Kitchen cabinets are finished in a cherry stain w/ nickel hardware. Access the deck from the kitchen. All light fixtures & doorknobs are nickel as well. Your master is large enough for a king bed & has a beautifully remodeled half bath. The lower level showcases a billiard room w/ brick hearth fireplace & direct access to the rear patio. An additional bedroom & full bath are certainly bonus too! Also included are an exercise room and home office space. The home is set up for a central vacuum. It just needs a new unit installed. It also features a 75 gal hot water heater. All this on a great corner site!
