    Charming, cheerful, and easy to love, with a backyard that steals the show! This is the kind of home that just feels right. This mighty gem is full of charm, thoughtful updates, and an outdoor setting that truly shines. A stones throw from everything that makes Hillsborough so livable. Warm recessed lighting creates a cozy feel throughout the main living space, while the kitchen has been refreshed with a new refrigerator, new stove, and a brand-new sink and faucet -- making the practical stuff simple and enjoyable. A new vanity adds a fresh touch to the bath, and a new hot water heater and vapor barrier offer added peace of mind. Step outside and you'll fall in love. The yard is a lovingly tended retreat, bursting with mature landscaping and seasonal color. Japanese maples, graceful crape myrtles, fig trees, and even a pomegranate tree create beauty and interest year-round. Butterfly trees and abundant flowering plants attract pollinators, filling the landscape with life. Newer exterior outlets add convenience for outdoor entertaining or gardening projects. Sweet, manageable, and move-in ready, this home offers comfort, character, and a backyard sanctuary -- adorable and affordable!
