Tucked at the end of a quiet dead-end street, this updated 2-bed, 1-bath home sits just steps from a park that connects directly to the front and side yard giving you green space views right from the front porch. The kitchen has been stylishly updated, and laundry is conveniently located on the main floor. A detached 2-car garage rounds out the efficient layout. It's the perfect blend of charm, updates, and low-key neighborhood vibes.. .
