About This Home
The central location of this home just adds a sweet spot to an already awesome property. Fully refurbished, this 3 bedroom, 1 bath home over a full, finished basement will impress you at every turn. Great curb appeal welcomes you onto the front porch and the beautiful front door with side light panel. Inside you will see the improvements list unfold. New luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout the main level, except in the bedrooms, which have new carpeting. Lots of vinyl replacement windows give all the rooms plenty of light. Brand new cabinets and fixtures in the large eat-in Kitchen. New vanity and fixtures in the bathroom. All bedrooms are spacious. Downstairs has two large rooms, a laundry room and bonus storage room, all freshly painted. The backyard is partially fenced and continues far back. One half of the roof was replaced in the last few months and the other half approximately 3 years ago. It feels spacious for a recorded square footage of 848 sq ft (per county records) but add the basement space and it comes in at approximately 1,696 total square feet. In the words of the legendary Bob Barker: The Price Is Right!
