The unfinished basement offers endless possibilities, providing a blank canvas to create the recreation room, home theater, fitness area, workshop, or additional living space you've always envisioned. The expansive 20'x27' attached garage has plenty of room for storage and also features 240v breaker box if you would like to install an EV charging station. Location is another outstanding feature of this home.
