Galley Kitchen plus a large central Dining Room with vintage built-in cabinetry and wainscoting.

Upstairs includes 2 bedrooms and a full Bathroom with an oversized shower. One of the bedrooms is giant (23'x11') and was originally 2 separate bedrooms.

The detached, finished two car garage/workshop with openers and electricity provides plenty of space for autos and projects.
Convenient location, close to shopping, recreation and major commuter routes.
