    What's special

    Solid hardwood floorsRaspberry varietiesBathroom recently updatedTwo cherry treesMultiple raised bedsHigh efficiency fireplace insert
    Charming, brick/stucco home with solid hardwood floors and a high efficiency fireplace insert that functions as supplemental heat to keep those heating bills to a minimum. A cozy and tastefully appointed interior, kept faithful to its original design, calls out to you on a cold winter day to light a fire and curl up with a book or your favorite show. The basement is clean and dry, ready for your finishing touches. A small refrigerator is available, as well, to whomever is fortunate enough to make this their new home. The backyard is a gardener's dream with multiple raised beds, raspberry varieties and two cherry trees. Bathroom recently updated. Kitchen recently updated with new countertops, backsplash and an externally vented range hood. The cherry on top is the roof and most of the driveway replaced in 2022. Less than 5 minutes from schools and shopping. Don't let this gem get away! (The kitchen is pictured in two different configurations to demonstrate available options.)
