Beautifully kept 3-bedroom home with a spacious garage and newer updates! First, you'll notice a charming 3-seasons sunroom/porch that leads into a great living room, featuring a cozy wood-burning fireplace, flowing into the dining room. The hardwood floors are rich with character and timeless charm and run throughout most of the first level that is completed by two well-sized bedrooms sharing a full bathroom. Upstairs, you'll find a finished and roomy third bedroom. A door off the kitchen opens to a fenced backyard with a sizable garage, a large newer deck to enjoy the many perennials, and awaits your plans for the raised garden beds! The basement is ideal for a workshop and extra storage. Notable updates include a newer roof, furnace, leaf guard gutters, and garage siding when current sellers bought the home. Also located within walking distance to The 6th Avenue Corridor featuring the newly remodeled Chuck's Restaurant, a local and beloved favorite restaurant for decades, The Slow Down Coffee Co., Cha Cha's Highland Bakery, great shops, schools, and parks also nearby.
