This home is the gem of the price point! Recently lavished with a lot of love, this home now has new carpet, new paint, new landscaping, some new drywall, and a newly built 2-car garage with a steel roof. All of the electrical, plumbing, and windows were replaced in the recent past. The baths and kitchen have also been remodeled. The kitchen has a large pantry and ample cabinets and counter space. The house has low maintenance siding. There are many perennial plantings in the landscape beds. The back yard was recently regraded when the garage was built. The ceilings are high. The floor plan is remarkably open. A rare main floor bedroom with en suite full bath as well as a main floor laundry are all rare features for this vintage of home. Also rare is the drop zone at the back of the house just in from the back yard and garage. Two more bedrooms and another full bath are on offer on the second floor. The charming front porch has so much character and is truly another room to enjoy! Natural light abounds in this home. With this much to offer at this price and in this competitive market, this one won’t last long! Come see for yourself!
