About This Home

Check out this charming home on a corner lot, fenced in back yard, and an inground pool for relaxing on those hot summer evenings. The owner has devoted a considerable amount of time for improvements, which include a new roof in 2023, remodeled bath, newer flooring and extensive work on the detached garage. This 2 bed, 1 bath home maintains much of the original charm but with modern day conveniences. The living room is spacious enough for social gatherings but still maintains a cozy feeling. The pool has a new pump, cover, and storage shed for supplies. An eat-in kitchen provides a comfortable dining area for intimate dinners or for family and friends. A complete remodel of the bathroom adds convenience and charm. The laundry room is tucked away in the walk-in closet in the primary bedroom. A full, unfinished basement is a haven for storage and possibly a workshop area. An extremely spacious detached garage (app. 1,216 s/f) will accommodate two vehicles; has a mini split for heating and AC; roughed in plumbing for a bath, is drywalled, and will still provides ample room for equipment storage and a workshop.
