Find your home sweet home in the Barker neighborhood. Sip your morning coffee on the covered front porch and enjoy being just two blocks from coffee shops, hardware store, grocery, dining, gas station, and the Burroughs Creek Trail - everything you need, right outside your door! This meticulously maintained, move-in ready brick bungalow offers virtually maintenance-free brick siding with charming built-in shelving units, gleaming hardwood floors run throughout the bedrooms and living areas, complemented by an updated kitchen with white cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, pantry, and tiled flooring. Major systems have been thoughtfully updated for peace of mind: a new 220-amp electrical panel (2023), insulated crawl space and attic (2023), all-PVC sewer line, and new garbage disposal. The laundry area is equipped with a stacked washer/dryer and a newer water heater. Outside you'll find a large like-new shed with a dormer window, flower boxes, and double barn-style doors — ideal for a workshop, studio, or extra storage.
