About This Home

As of July 2022

Charming features abound in this cozy, affordable bungalow: dining room built-ins, beautiful gas fireplace with colorful tile, and alcoves situated throughout, perfect for showcasing your heirlooms, knick-knacks, and fresh cut flowers. The mechanicals are in great shape (furnace/AC/WH 2014, roof 2020). Never worry about storage space, with a walk-up finished attic, 2-car detached garage, and full unfinished basement with a second bathroom added in 2000. The variety of flooring is… interesting, and you’ll probably want to do some cosmetic updates. Move right in and update over time! Inspections welcome, but home is being sold As-Is.
