Nestled on a quiet street in the sought-after Parkview neighborhood, this one-owner home offers both comfort and affordability. Step into a spacious living room where a cozy wood-burning fireplace invites relaxation. The home's layout flows seamlessly from the living room into the dining area and kitchen, leading to a delightful four-season sunroom addition, bathed in natural light with windows on three sides.
The main level features three comfortable bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms, including a convenient primary half bath. The finished lower level provides additional living space, complete with a versatile rec room, a den, and another half bath, offering plenty of options for entertainment or work-from-home needs.
Recent updates ensure peace of mind, with new roof shingles in 2023, central air installed in October 2024, and durable Pella vinyl windows throughout. This home maybe the perfect opportunity to settle into the Parkview community.
