Cottage charm meets modern comfort at 1703 Jackson Ave! A white picket fence sets the scene for this move-in-ready bungalow, completely renovated in 2016–2017 with an addition, detached two-car garage, and replacement windows. Inside, a spacious living room welcomes you with abundant natural light, while the updated kitchen features stainless steel appliances and cabinetry extending to the ceiling. Two bedrooms offer generously sized closets, complemented by a full bathroom. The versatile addition provides main-floor laundry and extra space for a second living area, dining room, or home office, with potential to create a third bedroom if desired. Step outside to enjoy the covered patio and backyard—perfect for relaxing or entertaining. A roof replacement on the original home in 2025, along with the addition’s roof installed in 2017, adds peace of mind. With inviting character, thoughtful updates, and flexible living space, this charming home is ready for its next chapter!
