Come see the sweet features and brand new improvements: electric upgrade, basement sealing and exterior painting! Very pretty 3BR/2 bath farmhouse style 2 full story home with finished attic. Lovingly maintained for generations by the original family owners, this charmer is set among only a handful of 2 story houses, in an area known for its capes and ranches. The covered rocking chair front porch makes this traditional American style home a rare discovery, fairly unique for the neighborhood. Enjoy the new porch swing! The addition of the large family room with full shower bath in the back provides over 260 more square feet than the records indicate (1340, noted here as approx 1600), and offers many options - think possible en-suite first floor BR, or guest/in-law suite. Central AC on the main floors keep this home comfortable year round. Consider as well the beautiful original wood details and doors with glass knobs and vintage hardware, and the hardwood floors in bedrooms and living areas (including under the Berber carpet). The kitchen is spacious with plenty of cabinets and counter space including an eat at counter, as well as designer hand printed wall paper, and the almost required window over the sink! The finished attic, once used as a painting studio, adds yet more usable (non-sleeping) space - note the built in drawers. The late matriarch was an avid gardener, planting scheduled perennials that bloom in turn through the warmer months, from daffodils and tulips through to morning glories, sunflowers, Rose of Sharon shrubs, and more. The roof and HVAC are 12 years young. Block foundation done in the 1960s. The full basement with vented glass block windows also provides a *3rd john. Concrete driveway is in great condition, leads to the original 2 car garage. Improvements to the basement in the works. Red maple in front is young and away from wires! Buy now, tweak to suit, and settle in before the snow flies!
