About This Home

As of December 2020

When a house is as handsome as this you need to view it. The front door leads from a lovely covered porch to a nicely planned special blend of sophistication and informality which makes this a relaxed, enjoyable home. A lot of the appeal of this home is in the combination of convenience, and very good appearance. The exterior gives a good indication of the comfort to be found within. Here's a list of what will be found: 4 bedrooms with the master having a summer porch attached, double sinks in the full bath, 3 more good size bedrooms, and a 2nd floor open area for reading or gatherings, a walk-up attic, Granite kitchen counters, new back splash, cooper farmers sink, ample cabinets, pantry area, mud room entry with convenient 1/2 bath, formal dining room, large reading room with great natural light, living room with pellet stove insert, crown molding, hardwood and tile flooring throughout. The outside offers a large level yard, 3 sheds, all with electricity and can be used as your get away, back porch, two patios, 2-car garage with new doors, and a hot tub all add to the charm of this very well cared for home.
