This home has TONS of recent updates! Some updates in this adorable home include 95% efficient HVAC system with automated April-air humidifier installed in 2018, new kitchen counters, painted cabinetry and trim, newer vinyl tilt in windows, new plank flooring in great room and vinyl tile in kitchen area, roof tear off and gutters were done in 2016 and leaf guard was installed. AND... ALL the appliances are staying too!!! Refrigerator, gas range, portable dishwasher, washer, AND dryer!! There is also a newer drainage system under basement with clean out in back yard and sewer lines 2014 by previous owner so the Basement is dry dry dry!! All basement walls have also been painted with waterproofing paint so you can enjoy as a great storage area or extra living space! Upstairs is your classic large cape cod room that has an additional window a/c if you like it super cold! This home doesn't have a garage, but does have off street parking to the side of the home. With all of the updates done and the condition of the home, all you need to do is move yourself in! Sellers are even willing to negotiate leaving some of the items in the home! You will not be disappointed when you see this gem!!
