    What's special

    A perfect game in baseball. A total solar eclipse. The aurora borealis. These are spectacular events you rarely get to see in life. And when you do, it becomes headline news. File 657 Wales St. under that same category: ''Spectacular Rarities.'' 657 Wales St. is that rare Scranton home that offers what so many people are looking for today: charm, character, update, exceedingly well maintained, privacy, affordable, low taxes. Take all of your boxes and just put a big green check mark in them!Lovingly updated and cared for, this home features a modern kitchen with island and stainless appliances, flowing directly into the adjacent dining area, followed by a large, open living room just flooded with natural light. The rest of the first floor is rounded out by a gorgeous master bedroom and en suite bath, featuring custom finishes throughout. The kind of sanctuary to which you can retreat and let the worries of the day wash away. The second floor is fully updated with new flooring, paint, trim, electrical, and features two large bedrooms with vaulted ceilings and generous closets, along with a common study area, and a convenient second floor laundry. At 657 Wales the good vibes don't end at the door; the outdoor living space is just as impressive. The stone work and live edge wood cladding on the front porch set the tone for the experience throughout the property, including a large covered deck that leads seamlessly onto a stone patio. You'll also love the crystal blue waters of the pool to keep you cool in the summer months, as well as the shed-turned-hangout space if you just need to get away from it all. And don't worry about the ''Big Ticket Items,'' as everything including roof, electric, plumbing, and HVAC have been updated recently and is in good working order. Opportunities like this don't come around often. 657 Wales St. is a rarity, indeed. Don't miss this one, or you might wait a lifetime before another comes around!
