Welcome home to this charming 3 bedroom/1 bath home with over 1150 sq ft and updates galore. With a little cosmetic TLC, this home could really shine. Just inside the front door, you are greeted with a beautiful, cozy sunroom. Through the sunroom, an open concept living room, dining room, and kitchen are at the heart of this home. Updated kitchen cabinetry and newer appliances make this kitchen a stand out. Rounding out the main floor you will find two spacious bedrooms and a full bathroom. Up the stairs you will find a grand primary suite that overlooks downtown and a large walk in closet. A fully fenced flat backyard with concrete patio and ample parking makes carrying in groceries a breeze. Newer windows, new furnace and central AC(2022), newer roof (2020), and a new foundation wall make this home a steal.
