Recent updates include brand new appliances, a 2024 HVAC system, 2023 gutters, 2023 well, 2022 roof, new windows in the bedrooms, mostly new flooring, updated sheetrock, new interior trim, and fresh paint.
The basement is wide open with a garage door, offering ample space for storage, a workshop, or potential for additional finished area.
Outside, the open land provides room for gardening, animals, or other uses. A small creek runs along the boundary, adding a natural feature to the property.
