Step into this charming 3-BR, 1-bath home filled with warmth, character, and timeless appeal. From the moment you walk through the arched entryway, you'll be greeted by the beauty of original hardwood floors that flow throughout the home, complemented by classic built-ins that offer both style and smart storage.
The cozy living room centers around a beautiful wood fireplace (not used by the current owners), adding potential ambiance for those cooler nights. The layout includes a bright breakfast nook perfect for morning coffee, and a handy mudroom area that helps keep life organized.
Outside, enjoy a fully fenced backyard ideal for pets, play, or private outdoor relaxation. Owner is willing to leave patio stone for future patio if desired by buyer and with an acceptable offer.
Downstairs, the unfinished basement opens the door to endless possibilities--create a home gym, hobby space, or additional storage to suit your needs.
Whether you're looking for a home with character or a place with room to grow, this inviting property offers the perfect blend of charm, comfort, and opportunity.
Newer roof due to hail storm in last couple of years. Furnace & water heater new in 2023 (WH is a 50 gallon tank). Previous owner and this owner did some electrical updates. Exterior painted a few years ago and chimney & front steps were tuck pointed and repaired as well.
