    Waterproofed basementBlown-in attic insulationSubway tile backsplashRich espresso shaker cabinetrySoaring ceilingsStainless steel appliancesRemodeled kitchen
    Fully updated throughout, this home features sun-filled rooms, soaring ceilings, & too many updates to list! Transferable tax abatement - Seller pays just $26 per year in property taxes! Step inside to a flowing layout where the remodeled kitchen boasts rich espresso shaker cabinetry, subway tile backsplash, & stainless steel appliances overlooking the breakfast nook: a perfect place to start your mornings. Sellers loved gathering here & will miss the way natural light pours in across the open living spaces. Thoughtfully upgraded, this home offers both convenience & peace of mind: laundry options on the 1st floor or in the basement, new windows, siding, roof, AC & dual-stage furnace (2022), new water heater, blown-in attic insulation, glass block windows, & even waterproofed basement w. new stairs. Upstairs, both full bathrooms have been fully remodeled, while the RARE primary bedroom (not many homes on the west side have a primary bedroom with private ensuite full bathroom) showcases oak flooring. Every detail has been refreshed so you can simply move in & enjoy. The sellers will miss cozy evenings in the inviting living room, mornings sipping coffee in the breakfast nook, & the sense of comfort knowing everything has been meticulously cared for. They'll also miss the privacy & functionality of the backyard: step outside to your secluded patio surrounded by a 6-ft vinyl fence, stroll down new concrete walkways wrapping the home, or head to the newly built 2-car detached garage complete w. foundation upgrade and new electric. Whether entertaining, gardening, or unwinding, this backyard is ready to be enjoyed in every season! Professional photos to be added; priced to sell! See A2A remarks.
