What's special
A Perfect Blend of Character and Comfort, Spaciousness and Coziness, Convenience and Privacy. This 3 bedroom, 2+ bath home has so much to offer! A beautiful open staircase graces the entry. Natural woodwork, some hardwood floors, solid doors and crown molding are featured in many rooms. There's a comfy, carpeted living room. A spacious formal dining room with built in corner hutches. The handy kitchen is loaded with stainless appliances, including a new dishwasher (2024). The main floor also features a new bathroom with tub/shower (2023) and roomy mud room with space for the laundry. The upper level includes a 2nd full bath, ample closets and 3 comfortable bedrooms. There's also a floored attic. The full basement offers plenty of storage space and more washer/dryer hookups (W/D in basement included). The furnace has a new blower motor (2024). There's a radon system already installed (2023). Water softener. The generator stays but is not completely hooked up, sold as is. There's a fenced backyard and partially covered deck with hot tub (included). The 115' of driveway is perfect for extra vehicles and off street parking. BUT WAIT, there's more! The 24'x36', 3+ car garage is heated, has window a/c, tons of storage cabinets and it's own 1/2 bath! The upper level of the garage features a party-sized game room with a wet bar, is heated and cooled and has sliding doors to an upper level deck. All of this in a handy location near schools and the hospital. The seller is offering a 14 month HOME WARRANTY covering the major mechanicals for a worry-free purchase!
