What's special

Talk about location, location, LOCATION! This sun-soaked home puts you steps from parks, the lake, bike paths galore, and a quick pedal or stroll to downtown! Step inside and prepare to be wowed — soaring ceilings and an airy, spacious feel greet you right away! Gorgeous natural wood floors flow throughout the main level, adding warmth and character everywhere you turn. And get this — the second bedroom has its own loft, with room for an entire extra bed setup! This home has been loved and looked after: furnace (2014), roof (2015), custom kitchen counters (2020), gutters (2017), garbage disposal (2023), dishwasher (2023), bathroom remodel (2025), electrical sub panel (2026)! It’s that perfect blend of old-home charm and modern-day ease — truly one of a kind! Seller selling "as is".
