About This Home
As of June 2024This is a great home, in an excellent location, with lots of old-time charm. Big corner lot and not in the flood plain! 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. The living room and dining room have original hardwood floors in excellent condition. Wood burning fireplace in living room; along with built-ins in both rooms. In typical bungalow style, it's bigger than it appears from the curb. The kitchen was upgraded and all appliances stay...range, refrigerator, dishwasher and microwave. There's a cute breakfast nook for quick meals. 2 bedrooms and bath on main level; and an interior room suitable for office, play area, etc. Upstairs has a big master bedroom and bath, with a walk-in closet/storage room. All carpeting is brand new and whole interior has been freshly painted. The basement has a big main room that could easily work as a family room. The laundry room had doubled as a grooming salon, and the pet washing station will stay! How great is that? It will work for cleaning so many things! Another room is for storage, and workshop area. Again, all freshly painted and in excellent condition. Washer, dryer, and 2nd refrigerator stay. The exterior back yard is totally fenced. There's a lovely brick-paver patio with a half wall. Kids playset stays. Basketball hoop stays. 2 car garage. 220 electric heater for front porch stays. Furnace/CA 2004. Dishwasher 2020. Garage door 2021. Roof, water softener, water heater 2022. Washer/dryer 2023. Carpet April 2024. Fresh mulch. All the work's been done. Come in and enjoy!
