This darling bungalow is the definition of a cream puff — clean, updated, beautifully maintained, and shows pride of ownership throughout! Nestled in a quiet neighborhood, this charming home offers over 1,650 square feet of comfortable living space with thoughtful updates throughout. A well-planned 2001 addition expanded both the kitchen and the primary bedroom, creating a more spacious and functional layout, adding a second full bathroom and additional closet space for extra convenience. The heart of the home is the inviting kitchen, featuring solid wood Amish-built cabinetry, generous workspace, room for a large kitchen table, and includes all kitchen appliances — an added value buyers will love. Enjoy the ease of a main floor laundry, with optional laundry hookups still available in the basement for added flexibility. The partially finished basement provides additional living space along with two separate storage rooms, perfect for organization and hobbies. Outside, the screened in front porch adds relaxation space, and the low-maintenance landscaped yard offers great curb appeal without a lot of upkeep. The oversized 2-car garage, also built in 2001, provides secure parking, extra storage, and alley access with garbage pickup conveniently located behind the garage. This absolute gem was the site of many gatherings, filled with love of family and friends. It combines charm, function, and thoughtful improvements in a peaceful setting — truly a must-see!
