About This Home

As of February 2023

MULTIPLE OFFERS -HIGHEST AND BEST BY 1/20/2023 @ 8PM. A slice of paradise is right here at this bright and cheery, charming and super cute home located on of the most undeniably best streets in Paradise Green! Right out of a magazine! Nothing to do but move right in, as this home has been loved and cared for. Did we mention that we have central air, too? The spacious living room is open to the dining room, which has wonderfully elegant wainscoting. The kitchen has more wainscoting, granite counters, built in shelving, and even a dry bar area for coffee "and"! We know you'll enjoy the warmer seasons in the large front enclosed sun porch, and if you don't know the area, this street hosts its own block party every August. Shopping at Paradise green is a stones throw away, as is Longbrook Park, and you're near the train station, bus line, and equidistant from I-95 and the Merritt Parkway. Come here, and you can stop looking!
