About This Home

As of May 2021

Are you ready to be centrally located and not have to do any work to your home? This is your chance! This conveniently located home has updates throughout while keeping the charm and style of an older home. Glass door knobs, hardwood floors, and arched doorways make this home very inviting. The kitchen has been completely remodeled and includes all appliances. It has an open concept that spills into the dining area then into the living room. Two of the three bedrooms are extra large and offer plenty of space! Cute built ins for storage throughout. This home sits on 2 lots, has a fenced in yard and an over sized 2 car detached garage. The roof was replaced last year and the electric has been upgraded to 200 amp. The circle drive and extra parking are another reason this home is so family friendly.
