This great space seamlessly flows into the dining area and a well-equipped kitchen filled with abundant cabinets and built-in appliances making it ideal for both everyday meals and entertaining. A sliding glass door leads to a rear deck overlooking the vast back yard. You’ll also find 2 generously sized bedrooms, a convenient laundry room with a sink, a half bath, and a full bath featuring a deep jetted tub on the main floor. The basement adds to the home's appeal with a newly carpeted family room and tremendous storage and workspace. Items you don’t want to miss include an instant-on water heater, sump pump, water softener, a/c new within the last 5 years, new cooktop range and hardwood floors under the carpet on the main floor. The exterior of the home boasts a new chimney and steel roof. The attached garage, with heating and air conditioning pumped from the basement, is thoughtfully divided into 2-stall and 1-stall portions providing flexibility. A huge asset to the property is the awesome 30x45 heated shop featuring like-new concrete and a fully steel-lined interior making it an excellent space for various projects or storage needs.
