All of the character and charm plus all of the modern updates you're looking for! You'll fall in love with this home from the minute you step foot through the door. The main floor has a spacious living room that opens to the completely updated kitchen (white cabinetry, quartz counters, SS appliances). You'll also find a full, updated bath, bedroom, mudroom, and solarium (perfect for that morning cup of coffee) on the main floor. Upstairs includes 3 bedrooms and a beautifully renovated bathroom. Outdoor living is made easy here, with 2 different options! Enjoy your fully fenced backyard with patio and beautiful landscaping, or relax on your composite deck and look out over your larger side yard. Solar panels installed and fully paid for in 2023, so you just get to move in and enjoy the benefits (ask your realtor for savings details)! Every inch of this home has been lovingly renovated (see attached for full list of updates) and is move-in ready for its next owner!
