About This Home

As of March 2021

Why did these owners choose this home? The sunlight that floods the kitchen & living room, generous windows in the bedrooms, vinyl replacement windows on the main floor, the roomy rec areas in the basement complete with convenient half bath, and the huge open backyard with shaded climbing tree ... All great features that you'll love too. Room for a garden behind the garage. Close to shopping, dining options, schools, and of course the Lake. Appliances are included. New storm and interior back doors are on order. New sump pump and new basement windows last summer, roof replaced in 2009, ceiling fans in all rooms. Three closets in the hallway. Occupancy at closing.
