This beloved 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home has over 1800 sq ft of finish for all your family needs. The large living room leads into the open kitchen with quality oak cabinetry, quartz counter tops/backsplash, and updated appliances. The huge sunroom is a great place to enjoy lazy afternoons on a wicker sofa or to have big dinners with friends. The primary bedroom has its own half bathroom for convenience and two additional bedrooms share a 3/4 bathroom. The lower level has a big family room, lots of storage space and a laundry room. Outside, there is an awesome 2 1/2 car garage with more square footage than some new construction 3-car ones, a gazebo area for your new hot tub, plenty of grass, a shed, and an updated driveway and patio area. One loving owner for nearly 40 years, and it shows.
