About This Home

As of June 2020

Fabulous split level home in the ever popular community of Sherwood Park which backs to Delcastle Park for easy access to recreational activities. So much living space in this 4 bedroom 2 bath home. Open living room and dining room. Updated kitchen with extra cabinets for storage and updated appliances. The family room provides an area for relaxing. There is a separate laundry area that leads to the back yard. The garage with opener is entered through the family room. Storage abounds in the basement and also a cute outside storage shed. Having 4 bedrooms with an updated bathroom is "icing on the cake". Lovely plantings, lush green grass, patio, and yard backing to woods for privacy add to the beauty of this property. Great curb appeal!! Conveniently located close to shopping, hospital, train stop, and I-95. Natural gas is available. Seller will remove carpet in living room and dining room to uncover hardwood floors. Don't miss this great home in a fantastic location. So much house for the money!!!!
