Welcome to this beautifully updated 3 bedroom 1.5 bath Dutch Colonial style home. Most of the home features refinished oak hardwood floors, while the master bedroom has new carpet and there is LVP flooring in the kitchen, making for easy cleaning and maintenance. Walking into the house, you enter through the main entrance hall. On your left is a formal dining room, and the spacious living room is on the right. Through the living room is a sunroom with ample natural lighting and the half bath. In the kitchen you will find one-year-old appliances including the refrigerator, dishwasher and microwave. Upstairs, you will find two bedrooms connected by a jack-and-jill door, a storage closet/office, the master bedroom, and the full bath which features a new bathtub, vanity and medicine cabinet. The basement is where you will find the 3-year-old gas furnace which provides hot water for the tankless water heating system, and also heats the water for the very efficient and cozy radiator heating. A sump-pump and a dehumidifier keep the basement dry and ready for storage. There is also a one-year-old washer and dryer. Upgrades within the past year include a new control panel which updated the electrical service to 200amps, new electrical wiring throughout the home, all grounded outlets, hardwired smoke detectors, refinished plaster walls, fresh paint throughout the entire house, and a resealed crawlspace. Outside, you will find mature landscaping and plenty of privacy with this double lot. The detached, oversized one-car garage offers ample storage space with a walk-up second story. The home will also be sold with 4 new LG window AC units, which are very efficient at cooling the home and much cheaper to maintain than ducted central AC. Home is in move-in condition, come and take a look!
