There are 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms & a charming den that could easily double as a home office or 4th bedroom. NEW ROOF, NEW KITCHEN, NEWER HVAC! This home is turn key - all you need to do is call the movers. In addition to all of the recent upgrades, the property maintains charming character including dual fireplaces, diamond pane windows, bottle glass windows, and tall post and beam ceilings. There are plenty of windows, flooding the home with natural light. Step into the backyard and you've reached a majestic private oasis! The grass area adjacent to the pool is surrounded by mature trees providing a private and cool place to lounge on hot summer days. Towards the back of the property you'll find a fire pit area, perfect to gather around with your closest friends and a warm cup of coffee on chilly evenings. The covered patio offers generous space to enjoy el fresco dining on the regular. This is where all of the parties are going to be!!

This home has been lovingly cared for and maintained for 17 years & this family is now ready to pass on the legacy to the next owner. Come tour the home & make your offer today - it won't last long!!
