What's special

Cove ceilings

Lovely home on tree lined street with sidewalks. Huge fenced backyard with garden areas, brick patio, and even a dog kennel or secure storage area for your bikes and tools. Brick patio off the back of the home is private and the perfect place for grilling and get-togethers. Theis 1940's home has been lovingly cared for to keep original character like hardwood floors, fireplace, and cove ceilings in place while updating to today's living needs.

Kitchen remodel in 2012 included new cabinetry, solid surface counters, stainless steel appliances, and tile flooring. The main floor features a spacious living room with hardwood floors plus a second living space that is a great family room/office/sunroom with tile floors and sliders to the fenced backyard. One stall garage and off-street parking plus open clean basement with laundry and utility sink included. Offer Deadline Mon 8/17 at noon.
