Beautiful view from this WATERFRONT home on Chester Cove! Steps to fishing or kayaking just out your door. Enjoy watching the wildlife from the 20x10 deck directly off the kitchen/dining/living rooms. Wonderful light enters through the abundant windows on the first floor with its open floor plan, kitchen with granite, newer appliances and a window over the kitchen sink you won't want to walk away from; there's also sliders to the deck and a full bath. On the second floor there are three spacious bedrooms along with a second full bath. The whole house underwent full renovations between 2012-2013 including new kitchen, baths, gleaming oak flooring, foam insulation, new HVAC, new electrical; the updates continued along with a new roof in 2017, and just recently new carpeting on second floor, new stove and microwave plus a new dryer. Bring your creativity to finish the lower walk-out level with its charming brick architecture along with newer radiant-heated, poured concrete floors and french doors -- this could be an amazing walkout steps to the water!
