The lovely front porch is perfect for gathering or relaxing on a lazy afternoon. Upon entry of this home you are greeted by a side staircase and the living room which opens to the formal dining room and den. The formal dining room acts as the central meeting space within the home. The eat-in Kitchen is just off the dining room and offers updated appliances. Don't miss the hall which leads to the first floor full bathroom and the side door to the yard. The den was built as a 4th bedroom with large closet. Space can be converted back to 4th bedroom by new owner if desired. Second floor offers 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths and lots of storage, hardwood floors are under carpet throughout house with exception to addition. Addition was about 19 years ago, as a large second floor primary bedroom with full bathroom and a 4th bedroom on the first floor. The first floor addition is currently being enjoyed as a cozy den. Additional highlights include a detached garage, a lovely yard with space for gardening, and a full basement offering plenty of storage.
