Solidly built and lovingly maintained, it offers a rare blend of authentic charm and thoughtful refreshing updates. A level entry with two spacious bedrooms and 1.5 baths on the main floor create an easy, comfortable layout, while the fully remodeled kitchen brings a fresh, modern feel to the heart of the home. French doors off of the dining room offer access to the backyard and make indoor-outdoor living effortless, with the lovely flat, pet-friendly yard ready for weekend gatherings, playtime, and four-legged friends. Enjoy one-level living here, but don't worry, there’s room to live, gather, work, and grow! The lower level adds even more versatility, featuring a generous rec room, bedroom, office/den, 3/4 bath, laundry, and an attached garage.

Thoughtful updates extend beyond the finishes, including A/C, updated electrical, newer windows, remodeled bathrooms, new roof/gutters, and more. Pristine condition and inviting spaces feel fresh and welcoming while remaining perfectly connected to the home’s mid-century roots. Warm, welcoming, and full of personality, this is a home with a story...it's the kind of place that makes you want to settle in, stay awhile, and make it your own.
