    What's special

    Classic craftsmanship
    Step back into the golden era of homebuilding with this 1960's Bungalow, where classic craftsmanship meets timeless lovability. Rich hardwood floors flow throughout lending warmth and character. The main level welcomes you with living and dining spaces bathed in natural light anchored by those beautiful original hardwood floors. The 3 main floor bedrooms are tucked down the hall and the full bath is accessible as you enter the house from the mudroom or from the hallway near the bedrooms. The full basement presents a world of possibility with 4th bedroom, half bath and family room. Whether you envision a rec room, home gym, office or workshop, it is ready for your vision. Outside, a two-car detached garage provides ample space for vehicles, hobbies or weekend projects. The covered patio off the garage is the true hidden gem-a sheltered outdoor retreat perfect for morning coffee, evening gatherings or simply watching the seasons change without worrying about the weather! Properties with this combination of mid-century character, functional layout, and outdoor amenities are increasingly rare. Don't miss your opportunity to own a piece of classic Americana.
