About This Home

As of December 2020

The holidays are just around the corner and there is no better way to enjoy them than inside a beautiful home such as this. Nestled on just over an acre in Center Township, this home has been fully updated and has four bedrooms for your family. Sellers installed LVT flooring throughout the main floor and high-end carpet in the upper level. A brand new furnace was installed in 2019. The kitchen has all new appliances, high-end stainless steel appliances, a greenhouse window, and beautiful quartz countertops. Some of the exterior features include a long blacktop driveway, a gorgeously landscaped yard, raised garden beds, a large deck with under-rail lighting, and a 26 x 16 storage shed. This is truly a wonderful place to call home!
