A full hall bath serves the remaining bedrooms. The fully insulated basement provides excellent storage and features a new electric hot water tank with temperature controls. Outside, mature trees, lilacs, hydrangeas, berry bushes, herbs, and chestnut trees create a lush, beautifully landscaped setting. Move-in ready and meticulously maintained, this turn-key home offers classic comfort in a truly idyllic location. --
