About This Home

As of March 2024

This spacious and charming split level is tucked away in the desirable Lafayette Park neighborhood with tree lined streets, sidewalks for long walks, large lots and well maintained homes. It has been brought to life with glistening new floors, all new doors including the garage door and many new windows, it has been freshly painted inside and out, the kitchen has been stylishly remodeled and all bathrooms are shiny and new! Let's not stop there, continue with all new appliances, new water heater and a new energy efficient heater and central A/C.
The main floor has an open floor plan with a bright and spacious living room adjacent to the dining area.
The dining area opens to the newly remodeled kitchen with stylish cabinets, granite countertops, stainless appliances and a pantry. Off the kitchen is a breakfast room, which could alternately be used as an office, a guest room or whatever your heart desires. The dining room slider opens to a covered patio looking out to a big, partially fenced yard with shade for your backyard gatherings and sun for gardening and play. The deep garage not only provides your vehicle protection from the weather but has plenty of room for storage. Upstairs has three nice sized bedrooms with ceiling fans, plenty of windows and closet space. The main bedroom has an attached bathroom with stall shower, the hall bath has a shower tub combination. Both full baths have been beautifully updated. A large, easy access, partially floored attic gives you easy access to storage and endless opportunity to expand your living space. The lower level has a spacious family room with a brick, wood burning fireplace to make the winter nights warm and cozy. Completing the lower level is a half bath, laundry room with a new washer and dryer and even more storage. This wonderful house just needs your personal touches and for you to call it home!
