    What's special

    An incredible opportunity to own a well-loved, well-maintained colonial in the heart of Wallhaven! This home offers 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. As you approach the home, you’re greeted by a covered front porch. Enter the home and you can choose to head to the kitchen, upstairs, or the living room. The living room is spacious and light filled, with light-washed hardwood floors. The perfect touch is a wood burning fireplace. A great spot to spend cozy winter evenings. The living room flows seamlessly into the dining room, continuing with the same hardwood floors. As you head into the kitchen, you’ll find a half bath, tucked conveniently on the first floor. The kitchen has been tastefully updated with freshly painted cabinets (2025), granite countertops (2025), and linoleum parquet flooring. The sunroom off of the kitchen offers additional living space. Newer LVP flooring and tile has been laid. Heading upstairs, you’ll find the primary bedroom with ample closet space - two closets. The three other bedrooms are also upstairs, all with hardwood floors. The full bathroom has classic, spunky 50’s tile. Built in closets complete the second story common space. You will be pleasantly surprised by the amount of storage this home offers. The basement has been partially finished with epoxy flooring (2026). The one car attached garage is a bonus to provide shelter from snowy days and offers even more, you guessed it, storage! The cement driveway is oversized for ease of parking. The back yard is fully fenced, with a concrete patio (2024) for relaxing, dinners outdoors, and playing catch with your furry best friend. The shed out back has its own electrical service - a small workshop in the middle of town. This house comes with a one-year HSA home warranty for extra peace of mind. Roof was replaced in 2020.
