You can head down to the lower level that is extremely clean, houses the gas furnace and electric hot water tank, and currently offers so much storage space, but could be transformed into even more living space, should you want to fully finish the area, or a portion of it. The second level features two generously sized bedrooms, each offering a tranquil retreat after a long day, and are complemented by a newly remodeled bathroom, featuring modern fixtures and finishes that add a touch of luxury to the everyday routine. Then head on up to the third level, where you'll appreciate the spacious third Bedroom. One of the standout features of this home is the central air system, ensuring comfort throughout the seasons. The wrought iron railings add a touch of sophistication and character to the home, while the recessed lighting brightens up the entire Living area.
