About This Home

As of December 2025

This recently updated home is perfectly located in a lovely neighborhood close to city parks and the rec center. The library is down the street and hospital, restaurants, schools, shopping and more are within walking distance. As you approach, you are welcomed with an inviting path scattered with plantings and a covered entry. Out back, enjoy the covered porch or other hang out areas in the fully fenced back yard. Located on the south side of the home, the sunny yard is the perfect spot for a garden or grassy area for your fur family. With it's mid-century modern vibe, this home has a lot of charm. Featuring 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a bonus detached and heated 4th bedroom/office that could possibly be converted to an accessory unit. A separate laundry/utility room, workshop and covered parking are also included. Some of the updates are: inside/outside paint, landscaping, new swamp cooler, end panelings on exterior, both bathrooms updated, new fixtures, knobs and trim, all new appliances and kitchen sink. Wood casement windows, a bay window, cozy wood stove, tile and original wood floors add to the appeal and all of the updates make it too tempting to resist. Call today for a private showing so you can see, firsthand, all that this special property has to offer.
