PRECIOUS and MOVE-IN READY! Zoned to award-winning Thompson schools, this darling cottage is the perfect retreat. EVERYTHING is on the main level and living here is a breeze. This 3/2 in the heart of everything has gorgeous flooring, tons of natural light, 3 large bedrooms (the primary has an incredible en-suite bathroom and large closet), 2 full bathrooms, and plenty of room for everyone to gather. There is so much light in this home and you won't believe how much storage is throughout. The main level garage is just off the kitchen, so unloading groceries is SO easy. The kitchen is light-filled with beautiful cabinets and great appliances. The screened-in porch is where you will want to unwind after a long day. The back yard is HUGE and FLAT - a unique feature in this area! Don't miss this - these rarely come on the market and this one will go quickly! Minutes from medical/interstates/shopping/schools!
