What a great place to call home and only minutes from the interstate, elementary school, shopping and restaurants.

The kitchen is large with a perfect eating area for your group and an extended area for bar stools.

It also has a space at the end for a desk, dresser, make-up table, etc. The other two bedrooms are spacious and close to the hall bath. Enjoy this weather on the back porch or the new deck that surrounds the 29x17 Splash pool. There is a hot tub that can stay or not. The yard is fenced and has plenty of room for games or pets. A full basement has a roughed in bath and lots and lots of potential. There is a finished room currently used as a salon. Roof is one year old..replaced after a storm.
